商品簡介
Valency can be understood at a theoretical or lexicological level, but some prefer to think of the term as a new way of describing complementation phenomena. The essays here work at the theological level and also in the analysis of valency phenomena, covering such topics as the scope of valency in grammar, questions of whether complements v. patterns, semantic valency, the status of valency patterns, verb valency patterns as well as their constructions and grammaticalization, aspects of a valency syntax of German, the valency of experiential and evaluative adjectives, the case of verbs with propositional complements, cognitive issues and valency phenomena, such as the acquisition f argument structure, contrastive aspects of valency, such as in sentence patterns and perspectives in English and German, computational aspects.
