This chapter makes theoretical contributions to construction grammar
... We see two kinds of relationships in Figure 1: ones that we term “metonymical”, and ones that we term “metaphorical”. The solid lines show relationships where there is one more/less element in the neighboring construction. For example, a solid line connects the N+V+A construction with the neighborin ...

Generating A Parsing Lexicon from an LCS-Based Lexicon

Passive as an indicator of alignment change
