Construction Grammar und Gesprochene-Sprache-Forschung (German, Hardcover)

Imo undertakes an empirical analysis of constructions with ten verbs capable of being used in matrix sentences to combine the approaches of a oeConversation Researcha, a oeConversational Analysisa and a oeInteractional Linguisticsa with the theory of language and grammar advanced by a oeConstruction Grammara . He enquires into the advantages which the theory-poor a oeConversational Researcha could derive from a framework theory and examines whether a oeConstruction Grammara is adequate to the task of providing this framework, i.e. is able to describe the units of spoken language.
