By referencing a well-described constructional phenomenon in English, each paper provides a solid foundation for describing and analyzing its constructional counterpart in another language. This approach shows that the semantic description (including discourse-pragmatic and functional factors) of an English construction can be regarded as a first step towards a "tertium comparationis" that can be employed for comparing and contrasting the formal properties of constructional counterparts in other languages. Thus, the meaning pole of constructions should be regarded as the primary basis for comparisons of constructions across languages - the form pole is only secondary. This volume shows that constructions are viable descriptive and analytical tools for cross-linguistic comparisons that make it possible to capture both language-specific (idiosyncratic) properties as well as cross-linguistic generalizations. 410 0$aConstructional approaches to language ;$v10. 606 $aConstruction grammar 606 $aPhrase structure grammar 615 0$aConstruction grammar. 615 0$aPhrase structure grammar. 676 $a415/.018 701 $aBoas$b Hans Christian$f1971-$0619421 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817259103321 996 $aContrastive studies in construction grammar$91079592 997 $aUNINA
