Abstract:

Multiword expressions (MWEs) are a challenge for both the natural language
applications and the linguistic theory because they often defy the application
of the machinery developed for free combinations where the default is that the
meaning of an utterance can be predicted from its structure. There is a rich
body of primarily descriptive work on MWEs for many European languages but
comparative work is little. The volume brings together MWE experts to explore
the benefits of a multilingual perspective on MWEs. The ten contributions in
this volume look at MWEs in Bulgarian, English, French, German, Maori, Modern
Greek, Romanian, Serbian, and Spanish. They discuss prominent issues in MWE
research such as classification of MWEs, their formal grammatical modeling,
and the description of individual MWE types from the point of view of
different theoretical frameworks, such as Dependency Grammar, Generative
Grammar, Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar, Lexical Functional Grammar,
Lexicon Grammar.
