Serial Verb Constructions
2009
The present article aims to give a survey of the typology of serial verb constructions (SVCs) and the criteria that are needed for defining them. For that purpose, it starts with a detailed account of Aikhenvald and Dixon (2006) and their comprehensive cross-linguistic account of SVCs. In a critical discussion of this approach, this article will then address the following three issues. (i) The concept of single eventhood is a more general concept from which a number of Aikhenvald and Dixon's (2006) criteria can be iconically derived. The macro-event property and time-positional operators (Bohnemeyer et al. 2007) provide a good basis for a more coherent definition of what makes an event as f…

La Grant Crónica de Espanya: reflexiones en torno a la incidencia de los procesos de lexicalización en su edición
2020
AbstractThis article aims to offer some methodological reflections in relation to the historical study of phraseology in Juan Fernández de Heredia’s work. Specifically, we intend to reflect on the incidence of lexicalization processes within the framework of the edition project of the Grant Crónica de Espanya by means of the study of the phraseological unit por mal querencia de / por malquerencia de. This is intended to highlight the need to preserve the original state of the text in its graphic aspect and, in the case at hand, at the point referred to the union and separation of words.
On the typology of motion events in Aymara
2021
This paper investigates the lexicalization pattern of motion events in Aymara, an Andean language spoken in Bolivia, Peru, and Chile. After providing a description of the morphosyntax of translational motion events, this study aims at a preliminary typological classification of Aymara within the framework of Talmy’s typology (Talmy 2000). With this purpose, three diagnostic tests have been used to determine the basic framing-typology of motion events. These tests consider i) the size of manner-of-motion lexicon and, more broadly, the degree of manner salience, ii) the complex-path constructions and the use of ‘plus-ground’ clauses, iii) the expression of boundary-crossing. The results of th…
La lexicalisation des noms de marque en tchèque et en français : étude contrastive

Brand names and product names represent an important category of the lexicon of any language and can be studied from different points of view. In our text, we will focus on the problems of the lexicalization of certain brand and product names. The aim of our article is to show the degree of lexicalization of the foreign brand and product names in comparison with the brand and product names of national origin. At the same time we also want to analyze their motivation and their registration in Czech dictionaries.
MODELLI, TESTI, PROCESSI: UNO STUDIO COGNITIVO DELLE METAFORE DELESSICALIZZATE E D’INVENZIONE
2014
La tesi di ricerca è basata sulle metafore delessicalizzate e d’invenzione riscontrate all’interno del romanzo di lingua tedesca «Kassandra» scritto nel 1983 dalla scrittrice Christa Wolf e all’interno del racconto di lingua tedesca «Minotaurus: eine Ballade» scritto nel 1985 Friedrich Dürrenmatt. Si vogliono analizzare i processi cognitivi che stanno alla base della creazione dei due tipi di metafore. Per farlo si è scelto di utilizzare tre teorie della linguistica cognitiva: la teoria della metafora concettuale (Lakoff e Johnson, 1980 e 1999); la teoria dell’integrazione concettuale (Turner e Fauconnier, 2002) e la teoria dell’analogia (Monneret, 2004). L’analisi ci permette di comprender…

Lexicalization (and defrozeness) in the phraseological constellation formed with the nucleus querer

espanolEste articulo pretende contribuir al conocimiento de la fraseologia historica del espanol a partir del analisis de las combinaciones locucionales formadas con el nucleo verbal querer y con sus voces compuestas con bien- y mal-, como bienquerencia, malquerencia, bienquerer y malquerer.
