It serves as a contribution to the study of complementation, an under-researched area of investigation which bridges observations at the intersection of lexico-grammar, syntax and semantics. As a result, the reader develops their understanding of the meaning and use of each pattern within the system of English predicate complementation as it has evolved in recent times. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of English linguistics, especially English grammar. Mark Kaunisto is a Senior Lecturer at Tampere University, Finland. His work includes corpus-based studies on morphological rivalry, word-formation, neologisms, and usage guidebooks. Juhani Rudanko is Professor Emeritus at Tampere University, Finland. His latest work focuses on the evolution of predicate complementation in recent English and the application of linguistic pragmatics to the analysis of political debates in the early American Republic.Palgrave pivot.GrammarCorpora (Linguistics)Linguistic changeSyntaxLinguistics—MethodologyGrammarhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N24000Corpus Linguisticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N59000Language Changehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N62000Syntaxhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N45000Research Methods in Language and Linguisticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N70000Grammar.Corpora (Linguistics).Linguistic change.Syntax.Linguistics—Methodology.Grammar.Corpus Linguistics.Language Change.Syntax.Research Methods in Language and Linguistics.425425.6Kaunisto Markauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut877617Rudanko Juhaniauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910337725403321Variation in Non-finite Constructions in English2495318UNINA
