It determines in how far these constructions can be seen as a means to offer semantic specification of existing verbal expressions. The study further investigates whether support verb constructions may be employed to create periphrastic verbal expressions to denote concepts for which no simple verb exists in the language at that stage. This latter situation may particularly arise as a consequence of contact with new cultural concepts. The approach of the study is both qualitative and quantitatiNorth-Western European language evolution.Supplement ;v. 24.English languageOld English, ca. 450-1100VerbIrish languageTo 1100VerbEnglish languageVerb.Irish languageVerb.429.5Ronan Patricia1544428MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910791912503321Make peace and take victory3798638UNINA
