The nominal part in light verb constructions (LVCs) can be either a noun phrase (e.g.

The acquisition of event nominals and light verb constructions
Language and Linguistics Compass, 2019Abstract In language acquisition, children assume that syntax and semantics reliably map onto each other, and they use these mappings to guide their inferences about novel word meanings: For instance, at the lexical level, nouns should name objects and verbs name events, and at the clausal level, syntactic arguments should match ...
