2023 A multilingual approach to the interaction between frames and constructions: Towards a joint framework and methodology Constructions and Frames 15:1, pp. 59–90 | Article
The comparison of constructions across languages faces a major challenge: Both similarities and differences can appear on the whole scale from form to meaning. In this paper, we propose an approach combining the descriptive and explanatory power of Construction Grammar and Frame Semantics by… read more

2018 Chapter 9. Aligning constructicons across languages: A trilingual comparison between English, Swedish, and Brazilian Portuguese Constructicography: Constructicon development across languages, Lyngfelt, Benjamin, Lars Borin, Kyoko Ohara and Tiago Timponi Torrent (eds.), pp. 255–302 | Chapter
This chapter addresses interlingual relations between constructions. The perspective is contrastive rather than typological, with an aim towards multilingual constructicon development. Building on previous work on the alignment of frame-based multilingual lexical databases, we explore possibilities… read more
2018 Chapter 4. Towards continuity between the lexicon and the constructicon in FrameNet Brasil Constructicography: Constructicon development across languages, Lyngfelt, Benjamin, Lars Borin, Kyoko Ohara and Tiago Timponi Torrent (eds.), pp. 107–140 | Chapter
This chapter presents the theoretical discussion, analytical procedures, and corresponding computational implementations carried out by FrameNet Brasil to take the principle of the continuity between grammar and the lexicon to the computational domain by deeply integrating two frame-based resources… read more
2015 On the relation between inheritance and change: The Constructional Convergence and the Construction Network Reconfiguration Hypotheses Diachronic Construction Grammar, Barðdal, Jóhanna, Elena Smirnova, Lotte Sommerer and Spike Gildea (eds.), pp. 173–212 | Article
This work addresses the relation between inheritance and change in the framework of Diachronic Construction Grammar. Given that change is commonly thought of as a linear unidirectional path and inheritance relations tend to be organized in a multidirectional radial fashion, I propose two hypotheses… read more
2014 Constructions and frames meet language technology: From the guest editors of the C&F special issue on frames, constructions, and computation Frames, constructions, and computation, Borin, Lars, Gerard de Melo, Karin Friberg Heppin and Tiago Timponi Torrent (eds.), pp. 1–8 | Article
2014 Revisiting border conflicts between FrameNet and Construction Grammar: Annotation policies for the Brazilian Portuguese Constructicon Frames, constructions, and computation, Borin, Lars, Gerard de Melo, Karin Friberg Heppin and Tiago Timponi Torrent (eds.), pp. 34–51 | Article
This paper proposes three policies for the annotation of constructions in FrameNet Brasil, and, potentially, in other FrameNets. Annotation policies are defined so as to both avoid uncontrolled redundancy in the database and respect the theoretical and methodological foundations of Frame Semantics… read more
2014 Multilingual lexicographic annotation for domain-specific electronic dictionaries: The Copa 2014 FrameNet Brasil project Frames, constructions, and computation, Borin, Lars, Gerard de Melo, Karin Friberg Heppin and Tiago Timponi Torrent (eds.), pp. 73–91 | Article
This paper reports on the development of a domain-specific multilingual electronic dictionary covering the domains of soccer, tourism and the World Cup: the Copa 2014 FrameNet Brasil project. Specifically, we discuss three points: (i) the definition of the tourism frames and their deployment as… read more
