By clustering constructions based on semantic properties, she provides an insightful and more global view of a system that has been notoriously difficult to classify. Using diagrams as visual aids, Neiloufar Family takes a novel, bottom-up approach to analysing the light verb system, starting from small sets of constructions and mapping out consistent patterns. Her analysis leads to a deeper understanding of the structure of semantic spaces within the verbal system in Persian, and other languages that use light verbs. This research provides a blueprint for understanding existing verbal constructions and productively creating new ones.Brill's studies in South and Southwest Asian languages ;6.Persian languageVerbPersian languageCompound wordsPersian languageSemanticsPersian languageGrammarPersian languageVerb.Persian languageCompound words.Persian languageSemantics.Persian languageGrammar.491/.5556Family Neiloufar1524568MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910788034703321Semantic spaces of Persian light verbs3765504UNINA
