Futuro y evidencialidad

Authors: Escandell Vidal, María Victoria;

Futuro y evidencialidad

Abstract

El futuro es un tiempo verbal problemático en muchas lenguas, entre las que se cuenta el español. Los problemas principales son los siguientes: 1) el tiempo futuro puede recibir un elevado número de usos y valores; 2) de estas diferentes lecturas, algunas no expresan referencia temporal futura y, además, este empleo es, con diferencia, el más frecuente; y 3) la referencia temporal futura suele expresarse preferentemente por medio de otros tiempos y otras perífrasis verbales. Los intentos de caracterización del significado básico del futuro en términos temporales y/o modales no parecen poder tratar estas dificultades de manera satisfactoria. El propósito de este trabajo es presentar un nuevo enfoque unificado de la semántica del futuro en español basado en la noción de evidencialidad. Trataré de demostrar que, cuando el futuro se analiza como la expresión de un contenido evidencial -en particular, como una indicación de que la única fuente del contenido comunicado es una inferencia del hablante-, no solo puede caracterizarse fácilmente toda la variedad de usos y valores, sino que la concurrencia de otras formas para expresar la futuridad también encaja de manera natural en la propuesta.

Future tenses are cross-linguistically problematic for various reasons: 1) they usually get a large number of different interpretations; 2) some of these readings do not carry a future time reference and, moreover, these are, by far, the most frequent ones; and 3) future time reference is successfully expressed by means of other tenses and verbal periphrases. Approaches to the meaning of the future in temporal and modal terms do not seem to be able to tackle these difficulties in an adequate way. The aim of this paper is to put forward a unified proposal for the meaning of the future in Spanish based on the notion of evidentiality. I will argue that, when the future is analysed as conveying an evidential meaning -more precisely, that the propositional content has as the only source-, the whole range of uses and interpretations can be easily accounted for, and the co-occurrence of other expressions to indicate futurity can also be accommodated within my proposal in a natural way.
