Abstract
In this contribution, we present the results of a representative perception study that was carried out to determine how the verbal periphrase hube de + inf. is understood in Cuban and Argentinian Spanish and whether the Galician avertive lead to the presence of this category in those varieties. By means of analyzing interviews conducted in different Spanish cities (Barcelona, Madrid, Santiago de Compostela), Argentinian cities (Buenos Aires, Mendoza, Santiago del Estero, Tucumán, Córdoba and other cities in the province of Córdoba), Uruguay (Montevideo), and Cuba (Havana, Santa Clara), it was possible to show that in the Cuban variety of Spanish and in River Plate Spanish—Uruguay, Buenos Aires, Argentinian Northwest—there is no trace of an influence of the Galician avertive hube de + inf., while it gives proof of the existence of at least a perception of the avertive hube de + inf. in the Cordoban variety of Argentinian Spanish.
