Abstract

There is, undoubtedly, a wide spectrum of research that can be undertaken on adverbs, and recent works on this issue have shed light to a still opaque field of investigation which has for a long time challenged linguists all over the world (Alexiadou, 1994b, 1997; Rivero, 1992; López, 1994; Costa, 1996, 2004; Cinque, 2004).
