Summary
"This volume presents eight studies of linguistic phenomena in Nordic languages (notably Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish) from a construction grammar perspective. The contributions both deepen and widen the focus of Nordic construction grammar by dealing with a variety of topics, such as the constructional network, pseudocoordination, additional language learning and emerging multilingualism, prototypical semantics in argument structure constructions, and domain specific discourse and language behavior. Thus, the volume showcases the vibrant research activity within part of the construction grammar community dealing with Nordic languages, contributing to the knowledge about the structure, use and learning of these languages, as well as to the field of construction grammar as a whole"-- Provided by publisher.
