Fact-checking on compound verbs in English
The creation of compound verbs remains among the most contested phenomena of English word formation and the studies targeting these units have normally portrayed them as inconsistent or almost anomalous. This perception, together with the heterogeneous origins and the contested status of compound verbs, might explain why two central questions remain unanswered: (i) are these genuine compounds? and (ii) how can they be analyzed in a uniform manner? This paper tackles English verbal compounding with two hypotheses in mind: (i) that it is crucial to differentiate between a product- and a process-oriented approach to the phenomenon, and (ii) that a paradigm-based analysis acknowledging the role of analogy and the weight of metonymy proves highly beneficial.
