Abstract:

This book presents eleven texts written by Brazilian and foreign authors that deal with the description and analysis of various linguistic facts (such as lexical, textual, pragmatic, semantic, morphosyntactic and phonological) in Portuguese and in several other languages, from different functionalist theoretical approaches (Theory of Grammaticalization, Systemic Functional Linguistics, Rhetorical Structure Theory, Textual-Interactive Grammar and Typological-Functional Theory). This book consists of two parts: The first one, entitled Functional Description of Languages, presents six texts that discuss the following subjects: (i) grammaticalization of words and constructions, (ii) Application of the Rhetorical Structure Theory, (iii) and connectives and conditional and additive clauses, and (iv) pragmatic aspects of the textual organization (interactional aspects). The four texts that integrate the second part, entitled Typological-Functional Description of Languages, discuss (i) syste
 mic functional morphology issues, (ii) categories of tense, aspect and mood in indigenous languages, (iii) lexicography (grammar bilingual dictionaries) and (iv) grammaticalization of verbs. 

The book is intended for both undergraduate and graduate students, and professors of Linguistics as far as students and professionals from other related areas that take the language and its different levels of organization as an object of study and reflection.
