The purpose of this paper is to describe the discursive behaviour of te lo prometo, from a pragma-linguistic and argumentative perspective. After a brief description of its macrosyntactic behavior (its position inside the statement, function of the pauses, combination with other linguistic elements ...), I demonstrate how te lo prometo is undergoing a grammaticalization process: it is losing its original meaning, to acquire strategic discursive functions (intensifier of the assertion, element of argumentative force, element of (im)politeness, irony ...) in informal argumentative texts.

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to describe the discursive behaviour of te lo prometo, from a pragma-linguistic and argumentative perspective. After a brief description of its macrosyntactic behavior (its position inside the statement, function of the pauses, combination with other linguistic elements ...), I demonstrate how te lo prometo is undergoing a grammaticalization process: it is losing its original meaning, to acquire strategic discursive functions (intensifier of the assertion, element of argumentative force, element of (im)politeness, irony ...) in informal argumentative texts.
