Abstract

This paper shows that neither of the two most obvious potential analyses of the Brazilian Portuguese periphrastic causative construction is viable and that its various properties invite us to adopt instead a hitherto under-appreciated type of analysis that I call BACKWARD CONTROL. This arises as a natural possibility under a conceptual semantic approach to causativization and control (Jackendoff 1990, Farrell 1995).
