metadata.value: Based on corpus data, the paper discusses three Spanish infinitive constructions with prospective
  meaning: two constructions with the verb of location estar and one with the verb of
  movement ir: <estar a punto de + Inf.>, <estar por + Inf.> and <ir a + Inf.>. A new approach is
  applied that views these constructions as a means of expressing the grammeme of the prospective
  in Spanish. The first part of the article contains an overview of the results of a corpus study
  of all three constructions, which aims to clarify both diachronic and synchronic issues of the
  simultaneous functioning of three different means of expressing prospective semantics, their
  frequency, as well as the distribution of each construction in the Spanish-speaking area. The
  first part also offers a detailed comparative analysis of the semantics of two infinitive constructions
  with estar. It begins with the establishment of a characteristic restriction for both constructions
  on filling the infinitive slot with atelic lexemes (which makes them different from
  the construction with the motion verb) and ends with the proposed interpretations of the
  semantics of both constructions with the verb of location. The second part of the paper, based
  on a review of descriptive grammars, theories, and corpus research, discusses the prospective
  construction with the verb of movement ir, and (based on results of a corpus study of all three
  constructions) proposes a description of the prospective zone in Spanish from the position of
  General, i. e. typologically oriented, Morphology, and Grammatical Semantics.
