This thesis analyzes often verbally functioning based expressions ou seja (that is) and quer dizer (that is to say) which introduce appositive constructions, present in op-eds in weekly periodicals belonging to Brazilian journalistic realm (VEJA, ISTOÉ, ÉPOCA) in 2012. Despite the fact that the labels attributed to such grammatical forms in current literature are varied, they are at first denominated conectores (connectors) in this thesis (GONÇALVES et al., 2007), as they connect the two units which compose the appositive construction – base and appositive units. They are later referred to as marcadores (markers) (MARTELOTTA; VOTRE; CEZÁRIO, 1996) as they sign reformulations carried out by text speaker/author. In order to carry out the research, interdisciplinary theoretical reference was Functional Linguistics, whose investigations are grounded in conceptual fundamentals of apposition and appositive constructions description in journalistic texts, allied to Textual Linguistics, which, through semantic relations study, helps to make a discursive connectors/markers’ profile. In this investigation, our main objective is to describe appositive constructions behavior spearheaded by the previously mentioned expressions, with reference to: a) generalizations about linguistic embodiment forms, marked by various punctuation marks, which permit their identification as desgarradas (dislocated) forms (DECAT, 2011); b) the different syntactic functions driven by the semantic relation of correferência do ponto de vista do locutor (co-reference from the speaker’s point of view) and performed by unit A base element (base or matrix); c) units weight relation (symmetry and asymmetry); d) expressions’ textual and discursive functions represented by unit B (appositive); and e) paraphrases types (WENZEL,1985) introduced by such connectors/markers. In order to achieve this purpose, we have taken as an object for analysis SN constructions (nominal syntagma) as well as the clause form (in the sentence) starting with a pragmatic and discursive approach. In corpus texts, the appositive constructions are used as argument and referencing strategy carriers. This is a descriptive and interpretative research, which leads to data qualitative and quantitative analysis, bearing in mind expressions’ syntactic, semantic and discursive profile. Final results confirm the hypothesis of discursive connectors/markers ou seja and quer dizer productivity in media written texts, introducing dislocated constructions which are highly functional in paraphrase’s contexts of use stablishing apposition.
