Abstract

From a linguistic point of view, time in language can be seen as a cluster of grammatical elements—namely, tense, aspect, mood and evidentiality (abbreviated TAME), or semantic domains from which the content of grammatical items is construed.

The present issue of Letras de Hoje focuses on TAME, with papers representing a wide spectrum of methodologies currently employed in linguistics, from logical and philosophical analyses to experimental studies.
