2023 Chapter 8. Danish verb prefixes and the schematizing transitive prefix construction Constructional Approaches to Nordic Languages, Coussé, Evie, Steffen Höder, Benjamin Lyngfelt and Julia Prentice (eds.), pp. 212–246 | Chapter
In a constructionist approach to grammar, morphological constructions and clausal constructions may have the same theoretical status as argument structure constructions (e.g., Goldberg, 1995, pp. 22–23; Croft, 2001; Booij, 2010). In this chapter, the author argues that the Danish verb prefixes… read more
2016 Spanish constructions of directed motion – a quantitative study: Typological variation and framing strategy Corpus-based Approaches to Construction Grammar, Yoon, Jiyoung and Stefan Th. Gries (eds.), pp. 105–144 | Article
In typological studies of expressions of motion events, there is a need for a

2014 Chapter 8. Variable type framing in Spanish constructions of directed motion Romance Perspectives on Construction Grammar, Boas, Hans C. and Francisco Gonzálvez-García (eds.), pp. 269–304 | Article

In response to Talmy (2000), Aske (1989), Morimoto (2008), and Beavers et al. (2010) among others, I… read more
2013 The Spanish impersonal se-construction: Constructional motivation for case-marking – quantitative evidence Deixis and Pronouns in Romance Languages, Kragh, Kirsten Jeppesen and Jan Lindschouw (eds.), pp. 109–124 | Article
According to the new edition of the Spanish Academy Grammar (Bosque 2009: 1220ff,2665), it remains unexplained why the clitic object in the Spanish impersonal transitive se-construction tends to be in dative (le): se le ve ‘you can see him’. The aim of this paper is to analyze this usage… read more
2009 The construction of macro-events: A typological perspective Deconstructing Constructions, Butler, Christopher S. and Javier Martín Arista (eds.), pp. 25–62 | Article
In this article Talmy’s influential typology of macro-events (Talmy 1985, 1987, 1991, 2000) is discussed from the point of view of construction grammar (Goldberg 1995, 2006). Talmy has described typological differences of lexicalization between what he calls satellite-framed languages and… read more
