Expanding Construction Grammar and Frame Semantics
Expanding Construction Grammar and Frame Semantics Expanding Construction Grammar and Frame Semantics
Frame Semantics •A “frame” is any system of concepts related in such a way that to understand any one concept results in all of them becoming available (Petruck 1996). GOAL: • describe the semantic and syntactic combinatorial properties of words DATA: • attested usage patterns 34
Lexical Description in Frame Semantics • A FRAME is described independently of the words that use it. • Words are described according to frames that they evoke and the ways in which the elements of their frames may or must be realized in sentences built up around the words. 35
