Abstract

The aim of this article is to present the analysis of the syntactic, semantic, pragmatic change of the adversative junctive porém in the history of the Portuguese language. We prove, by assuming the postulates of grammaticalization as a theoretical base and through contextual analyses that explain the emergence of an adversative conjunctional use of the item, the trajectory from adverb to conjunction. For the analysis, we use written data taken from different texts from
the thirteenth to the twentieth first century as corpora.
