Abstract:

This book provides a usage-based perspective to the study of
multi-word compounding, analyzing the structural, functional and
cognitive aspects of tripartite compounds (e.g. day care center,
football game, hotel bedroom). It highlights the heterogeneity of
these word-formation products, but also carves out surprising
differences to two-word compounds. In order to reveal the step from
two-word compounding to multi-word compounding, the book explains why
only some compounds are used productively for the formation of more
complex compounds. Building on the idea of entrenchment, it provides a
theoretical account that allows understanding speakers’ ability to
produce multi-word compounds.
