【 摘 要 】

Among German discourse markers, it is possible to identify a subset of lexicalized adverbials including the root of the verb ‘to say’ (sagen). The aim of this paper is to study the syntax and semantics of these metalinguistic adverbials both in written Standard German and in an oral, interactional corpus. Special attention is devoted to a special slot between the initial constituent of assertive utterances and the finite verb : while German is reported to be a V2 language, there seems to be a slot devoted to utterance-related adverbials, including metalinguistic sagen-adverbials. Then, I compare these adverbials with other markers exhibiting the syntactic behaviour of conjunctions of coordination. Finally, metalinguistic adverbials appear to be part of a wider system of markers whose meaning crucially involves the notion of reformulation, which is shown to be intertwined with the question of ‘viewpoint’ in affirmations.
