Resumo

En caboverdiano, unha lingua crioula de base léxica portuguesa, moitos contextos reflexivos non presentan unha marca reflexiva explícita. É o caso de verbos transitivos como bisti ‘vestir’ en oracións simples: Ana bisti ‘Ana vestiuse’. É este un feito inesperado, dado que a dita lingua presenta tamén unha anáfora do tipo SELF: (si) kabesa — literalmente ‘a súa cabeza’ —, co significado ‘del mesmo / dela mesma’, que participa en construcións reflexivas con outros verbos. O presente artigo analiza este problema e remata cunha proposta apoiada empiricamente e sustentada tamén por estudos recentemente realizados para outras linguas. De acordo con esta nova análise, todas as oracións finitas en caboverdiano, agás as inacusativas, teñen un núcleo Voice, responsable da atribución de roles temáticos externos. Quedan aquí incluídas tamén as pasivas medias, as pasivas e as reflexivas arriba mencionadas. É este núcleo Voice o que, malia ser silencioso, atrae o argumento interno cara a unha posición preverbal e garante unha interpretación para o argumento externo implícito, que está sintacticamente activo.
