Chapter 6. Semantic and lexical shifts with the “into-causative” construction in American English Explorations in English Historical Syntax, Cuyckens, Hubert, Hendrik De Smet, Liesbet Heyvaert and Charlotte Maekelberghe (eds.), pp. 159–178 | Chapter
2018 In this paper, we consider several lexical and semantic shifts with the “into-causative” construction (e.g. Sue talked them into leaving) in American English since the early 1800s. The study is based on more than 11,000 tokens (including 680 different matrix verbs) in several large corpora,… read more
Loose apposition: A construction-based analysis The Structure of the English NP: Synchronic and diachronic explorations, Davidse, Kristin (ed.), pp. 17–39 | Article
2016 Loose appositional constructions consist of coreferring adjacent nominals. The relation between the nominals is different from complementation and modification, and shows some intriguing syntactic, semantic and pragmatic characteristics. To model them we employ the framework of Sign-Based… read more

2010 In this paper we present data from Korean in which the core arguments (subject and direct object) of a transitive clause may be suffixed with oblique postpositional markers rather than the usual nominative or accusative case markers. Unlike familiar cases of oblique arguments, such as dative… read more

Engdahl and Vallduvi (1996) rejected this purely syntax-based approach and proposed… read more
Honorification in Korean as Expressive Meaning Korean Linguistics 13, pp. 167–195 | Article
2006 Abstract. Honorification in Korean elevates the social status of a participant in a clause with respect to the subject and/or the hearer. Honorific marking may occur as a nominal suffix, a special honor-ific form of a noun, an honorific case particle, an honorific marker on a verb, or a special… read more
