The various stages of the grammaticalization of these concepts are illustrated through representative examples that are meant to observe the evolution and the relations between the layers that the above-mentioned conjunction acquired along time,assuming consecutive,causal,final and conclusive nuances in different proportions function of the communication needs. The instrumentalization and specialized meaning that this conjunction possesses today are related both to the complex elements of the competition between meanings and to those of neglect towards the etymological ancestry.
