Abstract:

On the basis of synchronic and diachronic data analysis, the volume takes a 
close look at the synchronic layers of binominal size noun and type noun uses 
(a bunch/a load of X; a sort of X; a Y type of X) and reconsiders the framework 
of grammaticalization in view of issues raised by the phrases under discussion. 
As a result, a construction grammar-approach to grammaticalization is 
developed which does justice to the syntagmatic lexical, or collocational, 
reclustering observed in the data within an eclectic cognitive-functional 
approach.
