Abstract

In this work we adopted the postulates of the American functionalist theory, denominated Use-Centered Functional Linguistics – LFCU, considering linguistic change by means of discursivization and grammaticalization in a synchronic perspective. We approach the functioning of the expression agora in the discourse from the city of Natal with samples from the corpus D&G (1998). Our goal is to analyze the multifunctionality of the item agora in the several pragmatic-discursive contexts. Thus, we analyze each context of use of this adverb considering occurrence and categorize the data by its range, variation and change
