Abstract(s)
In Portuguese there are different suffixes that permit us to construct event deverbal nouns.
Those affixes may adjoin the same verbal base.Albeit deriving event nouns, the meanings of the derivatives of these suffixes are slightly
different. We intend to contribute to the understanding of the mechanisms that are involved in
affix semantic rivalry, specifically to the knowledge of the semantic features of the verbal
base that are sensitive to the semantics of each affix.
