Abstract:

This book presents a 100% novel approach to phraseology: A
language-universal deductive calculus of all theoretically possible
phraseological expressions (= phrasemes) is proposed, implemented in
51 rigorously defined notions. Nine major classes of phrasemes are
established and illustrated: "lexemic" idioms ("shoot the breeze"),
lexemic collocations "(pay a visit; helicopter parents)", lexemic
nominemes ("the Northern Palmyra") and lexemic clichés ("What’s your
name?; to put it differently"); "morphemic" idioms ("forget"),
morphemic collocations ("Londoner ~ Muscovite"), morphemic nominemes
("Greenland") and morphemic clichés ("antidepressant"); and
"syntactic" idioms ("Her be late?!?"). An additional class of
pragmatically constrained lexemic expressions is described:
pragmatemes ("No parking; At attention!; Roger".). Each phraseme class
is supplied with precise methodology for a lexicographic description;
a number of lexical entries for representatives of all classes are
given. The language data come from English and Russian. "General
Phraseology: Theory and Practice" is meant as a contribution towards
the elaboration of a unified notional system for linguistics.
