AbstractConstruction grammar, or constructionist approaches more generally, emphasize the function of particular constructions as well as their formal properties. Constructions vary in their degree of generality, from words to idioms to more abstract patterns such as argument structure constructions, topicalization, and passive.

Constructions are catenae: Construction Grammar meets Dependency Grammar
cogl, 2012Abstract The paper demonstrates that dependency-based syntax is in a strong position to produce principled and economical accounts of the syntax of constructs. The difficulty that constituency-based syntax has in this regard is that very many constructs fail to qualify as constituents.

What do speakers of a language have to know, and what can they 'figure out' on the basis of that knowledge, in order for them to use their language successfully? This is the question at the heart of Construction Grammar, an approach to the study of language that views all dimensions of language as equal contributors to shaping linguistic expressions ...

This chapter discusses the history and principles of Construction Grammar. It explains that Construction Grammar has its roots in the Saussurean notion of the linguistic sign, and the chapter outlines some of the unifying principles of constructional approaches to the architecture of language.

AILA Review, 2010
Constructions are the central unit of grammatical analysis in cognitive linguistics. In formal linguistics ‘construction’ referred to forms that were projected from lexical items rather than from an autonomous syntax. Thus, an expression, ‘I danced the night away’ requires an intransitive verb in a transitive construction provided ‘

Up to now, most research in Construction Grammar has focused on single languages, most notably English. This volume aims to broaden the scope of Construction Grammar towards issues in bi- and multilingualism, second language learning, and generalizations across different languages and language varieties.

Fundamenta Informaticae, 2002
A construction is described assigning a pure grammar G_{mrn} to any language and to any integers 0≤m≤r≤n. This construction has the following property: If the sequence (G_{mrn})_{n≥r} has a limit G_{mr} for any r≥m and if the sequence (G_{mr})_{r≥m} has a limit, then the given language is generated by a pure grammar.

The notion ‘construction’ has become indispensable in present-day linguistics and in language studies in general. This volume extends the traditional domain of Construction Grammar (CxG) in several directions, all with a cognitive basis. Addressing a number of issues (such as coercion, discourse patterning, language change), the contributions show how ...
