About me

My dissertation project investigates Ditransitive Verb-Particle Construction (Ditr. VPC) in modern Swedish from a constructional-grammatical perspective. At first sight, Ditr. VPC, which is examplified by hälla i sig ngt  "lit. pour in oneself sth" or ta ifrån ngn ngt "lit. take from sby sth", looks similar to transitive expression with a prepositional phrase such as hälla ngt i ngt "lit. pour sth in sth" or ta ngt från ngn "lit. take sth from sby". However, Ditr. VPC exhibits its own behavioral properties, such as animacy restriction on the first object. The aim of my project is to reveal the defining property and the constructional motivations of Ditr. VPC.

    Report

    本稿では、スウェーデン語学習者にとって必要な不変化詞および不変化詞動詞のリストの作成に向けて、見出し語となる不変化詞動詞の選定について考察した。不変化詞動詞は「動詞+不変化詞」から成り、複数の単語で1つの意味を表す「複単語表現(Multi-Word Expression)」に相当する。したがって、単一の単語に比べて、その頻度を出すことは容易ではない。そこで本稿では、不変化詞動詞の学習書やリストなどとコーパスデータを併用し、必要な不変化詞動詞の選定を行い、暫定的な不変化詞と不変化詞動詞のリストを掲載した。
