Abstract

COSTA, Sylvia. Time in spanish lexicon. Lingüística [online]. 2018, vol.34, n.1, pp.45-60. ISSN 2079-312X.  https://doi.org/10.5935/2079-312x.20180004.

The aim of this paper is to introduce the general guidelines and some results of a research in progress: Project of Temporal Networks (Proyecto de Redes Temporales). This study is an exploration of time coding in Spanish lexicon. Firstly, I present the fundamental aspects of the project, especially regarding the model of time in which we work. Then, I deal with the conceptual basis on which this study is supported. Right after, I refer to the theoretical contributions we expect to have achieved up to that point. I focus on the concept of temporal expression we deal with -as it is more extensive than that in the bibliography-, as well as on the classification of temporal expressions and the semantic features we ascribe to each class.

Later, I display the temporal networks we put forward by means of some examples and finally, I leave some remarks for future developments.

Keywords : time; temporal expressions; temporal networks.
