Constructionist Approaches
Past, Present, Future
Av Tobias Ungerer, Stefan Hartmann
Häftad, 2023
418 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Construction Grammar (CxG) has developed into a broad and highly diverse family of approaches that have in common that they see constructions, i.e. form-meaning pairs at various levels of abstraction and complexity, as the basic units of language. This Element gives an overview of the origin and …
The Constructicon
Taxonomies and Networks
Häftad, 2023
405 kr
Lägg i varukorg
It is one of the central claims of construction grammar that constructions are organized in some kind of network, commonly referred to as the constructicon. In the classical model of construction grammar, developed by Berkeley linguists in the 1990s, the constructicon is an inheritance network of …
Can Construction Grammar Be Proven Wrong?
Häftad, 2024
317 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Construction Grammar has gained prominence in linguistics, owing its popularity to its inclusive approach that considers language units of varying sizes and generality as potential constructions - mentally stored form-function units. This Element serves as a cautionary note against complacency and …
Multimodal Construction Grammar
Häftad, 2025
317 kr
Lägg i varukorg
This Element in Construction Grammar addresses one of its hottest topics and asks: is the unimodal conception of Construction Grammar as a model of linguistic knowledge at odds with the usage-based thesis and the multimodality of language use? Are constructions verbal, i.e. unimodal form-meaning …
Syntactic Variation from Individuals to Populations
Language as a Complex System
Häftad, 2026
291 kr
Lägg i varukorg
This Element presents a computational theory of syntactic variation that brings together (i) models of individual differences across distinct speakers, (ii) models of dialectal differences across distinct populations, and (iii) models of register differences across distinct contexts. This …
Constructions and Compositionality
Cognitive and Computational Explorations
Häftad, 2025
317 kr
Lägg i varukorg
How do we understand any sentence, from the most ordinary to the most creative? The traditional assumption is that we rely on formal rules combining words (compositionality). However, psycho- and neuro-linguistic studies point to a linguistic representation model that aligns with the assumptions of …
Copilots for Linguists
AI, Constructions, and Frames

AI can assist the linguist in doing research on the structure of language. This Element illustrates this possibility by showing how a conversational AI based on a Large Language Model (AI LLM chatbot) can assist the Construction Grammarian, and especially the Frame Semanticist. An AI LLM chatbot is …

Unrealized Arguments and the Grammar of Context
Av Rui P. Chaves, Paul Kay m. fl.
Inbunden, 2025
806 kr
Lägg i varukorg
In null instantiation (NI) an optionally unexpressed argument receives either anaphoric or existential interpretation. One cannot accurately predict a predicator's NI potential based either on semantic factors (e.g., Aktionsart class of the verb) or pragmatic factors (e.g., relative discourse …
