construction

• formulaic utterance 公式化表达
• constuction grammar (缩写CxG)
  • describe, understand, and generate utterances
  • explain how we use language
  • show the relationship between form and meaning
  • Problems with our Phrase Structure grammar
    • hard to get it to make a range of grammatical sentences
    • hard not to make ungrammatical sentences
    • treated meaning as separate from structure which meant that we couldn't rely on meaning to inform our grammar
• idioms 习语
  • oxbows 牛轭词
    • only appear in one construction
  • eggcorns 蛋角误用
    • mistakes that kind of make sense
  • non-compositional
    • Meaning grows out of use in ways that aren't predictable from structure
  • Fixed phrases with meanings not deducible from individual words
• chidren acquire constructions
  • first constructions
    • form-meaning pairings are learned as chunks
    • More X construction
  • complex
    • range of patterns expanding
    • -ed,-ing,-s
• Patterns 构式
  • Language templates with fixed and variable parts
  • "more X" (e.g., "more beans")
  • Intransitive motion constructions 不及物运动构式
  • "the way" construction way构式
• Words
  • Smallest independent units of meaning, can stand alone
  • constructions with form-meaning pairings
  • "dog", "run"
• Morphemes
  • Smallest units of meaning within words, may not stand alone
  • "dog" + "s" (plural suffix)
• building sentence
• memory limitations 记忆限制
  • constructions form an interconnected network rather than isolated items, allowing efficient storage and retrieval.
