Read the latest from the Journal of Portuguese Linguistics: “On the semantics of the structure estar por + infinitive in European Portuguese” by Luís Filipe Cunha:
On the semantics of the structure estar por + infinitive in European Portuguese
The main goal of this article is to provide a semantic characterisation for the structure estar por (literally, ‘be by’) + infinitive in European Portuguese. The combinatorial restrictions that this construction displays regarding the aspectual class of the predications with which it can cooccur suggest that it takes telic events as its input. Moreover, its linguistic behaviour parallels that of states. The connections between estar por + infinitive and adjectival passives, on the one hand, and sentential negation, on the other, lead us to propose an analysis that treats this configuration as a denied resultant state.
