Abstract
This paper focusses on a) the qualitative difference between octants depending on verbs and octants required by
nouns and b) the question whether it might be primarily pragmatic rather than stylistic reasons which account for
the preference of deverbal nouns over finite verbs in certain contexts. Political speeches by Franco and Salazar
provide us with challenging corpora for our analysis.
