In this paper, we aim to describe the uses of the connector diante disso in the light of Usage-Based Linguistics (Rosário, 2022; Traugott; Trousdale, 2013; Bybee, 2010, among others.), in dialogue with the pragmatic studies of the three connection domains (Sweetser,1990). In all, we analyzed one hundred tokens extracted from the Now database, present at www.corpusdoportugues.org, using both qualitative and quantitative analysis (Lacerda, 2016). We conclude that diante disso it is a polysemic connector that can convey semantic values of conclusion and consequence, distributed in a gradient perspective and organized based on morphosyntactic aspects.
