          Abstract

          En esta investigación se analiza diferentes formas verbales medias de la lengua del R̥gveda y se las clasifica según sean más típicamente monorgumentales, diargumentales o lábiles, con el objetivo de determinar si la elección de la estrategia reflexiva puede relacionarse con el tipo de valencia del tema verbal en cada caso. Se observa que en los temas típicamente diargumentales la voz media puede funcionar como estrategia reflexiva, mientras que en los casos lábiles y en los típicamente monoargumentales hay una mayor tendencia a la utilización de tanū́ -, fundamentalmente en acusativo, para asegurar la interpretación diargumental. Se concluye que un estudio de la reflexividad basado únicamente en las raíces verbales no es suficiente, pues no permite predecir los cambios de transitividad relacionados con las alternancias diatéticas al interior de una misma raíz.

          Translated abstract

          This research offers an analysis of different middle verb forms in the language of the R̥gveda. The analyzed verbs are classified as most typically one-place, two-place or labile, in order to determine whether the choice of the reflexive strategy is connected with the kind of valency of each case. We observe that the middle voice can function as a reflexive strategy in those classed as typically two-place verbs. On the contrary, typically one-place and labile verbs may require the use of tanū́ -, especially in the accusative case, in order to guarantee a two-place interpretation of the clause. We conclude that a study of the reflexivity based only on verb roots is not enough, as it does not predict the possible transitivity changes related to the diathetic alternations within the same root.
