Tendo em conta as recentes propostas de tipologia das construções passivas como
eventivas (ser), resultativas (ficar) e estativas (estar) (Embick 2004; Duarte e Oliveira
2010; Duarte 2013), o objetivo deste estudo é avaliar, através de um estudo
experimental, se os alunos do Ensino Superior conseguem distinguir os três tipos de
passiva e as suas diferentes especificidades e se são sensíveis às propriedades dos
verbos passivizáveis (transitivos diretos).
O estudo experimental desenvolvido visa testar a compreensão dos três tipos de
estruturas passivas, através de uma tarefa de juízo de gramaticalidade. No estudo,
participaram 47 alunos do 1º ano de licenciatura, tendo sido testados 60 pares de
frases (com 20 verbos distintos), que contrastavam passivas eventivas e estativas,
eventivas e resultativas, e resultativas e estativas, e ainda 5 pares de frases fillers
(distratores).
Os resultados apurados mostram não haver dificuldades no reconhecimento das
estruturas em análise. No estudo experimental, foram introduzidos alguns itens de
teste que funcionaram como fillers, mas que serviram para testar a capacidade para
distinguir os verbos que podem surgir em orações passivas eventivas em português
europeu dos que não podem ocupar esse lugar.
Os resultados mostram que os alunos tiveram alguma dificuldade em reconhecer as
características dos verbos passivizáveis, o que corrobora os resultados apurados por Estrela (2012), que dão conta da produção de passivas com verbos que não são
transitivos em textos de alunos do Ensino Superior. A análise de resultados individuais
permite vislumbrar também essa dificuldade.
Abstract: Given the recently proposed typology of passive constructions as eventives (ser), resultative (ficar) and stative (estar) (Embick 2004, Duarte and Oliveira 2010; Duarte 2013), the aim of this study is to evaluate, through an experimental study, if students of Higher Education can distinguish these three types of passive and their different specificities and if they are sensitive to the properties of verbs that can occur in the passive construction. The experimental study was designed as a grammaticality judgment task. The study involved 47 students in the 1st year of degree. Sixty pairs of sentences (with 20 verbs), which contrasted eventive and stative passives, eventive and resultative, and resultative and stative, plus 5 pairs of sentences fillers. The results show that there is no difficulty in recognizing the structures under consideration. In the experimental study, we have introduced some test items that functioned as fillers, but which served to test the ability to distinguish verbs that can occur in passive sentences in European Portuguese and those that cannot. The results show that the students had some difficulty in recognizing the characteristics of verbs that can occur in this construction, which corroborates the results obtained by Estrela (2012), that account for the production of passive with transitive verbs by students in Higher Education.
