This text investigates the meaning of conditional protasis markers like Spanish "si" and English "if" from a pragmatic perspective instead of taking them to be used in hypothetical or uncertain situations only.
First Published in 1999. This book investigates the meaning of conditional protasis markers like Spanish si ''if'' and English if from a pragmatic perspective. A standard assumption in linguistics is that these words encode as part of their semantics notions like hypothetical, irrealis, or, from the speaker''s point of view, uncertain, as in constructed examples like (la), where speaker B is unsure whether the proposition she''s eating is true or not.
