The usage-based model used here proposes that each particular sense of a verb constitutes a conventionalized mini-construction, which is crucial information for the licensing of arguments. In contrast, verbs in non-conventionalized resultative constructions can acquire a novel meaning and thereby a new syntactic frame. English and German resultatives are compared to illustrate the distinct lexical polysemy networks of English and German verbs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Center for the Study of Language and Informat","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":67804675473559,"sku":"9781575864082","price":3805.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781575864082.webp?v=1790698970","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/a-constructional-approach-to-resultatives-9781575864082","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
