Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHow to Apply CxG to Phraseology: A Multilingual Research ProjectValentina Benigni, Paola Cotta Ramusino, Fabio Mollica, Elmar SchafrothIn the present research project, we will set out to design and populate a multilingual database which lists and describes Italian, Chinese, English, French, German, Japanese, Russian and Spanish phraseologisms. We firmly believe that the multilingual database will prove particularly useful in second language teaching. We will endorse the holistic perspective of Construction Grammar as our theoretical and applied framework … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 20 Aug 2015 · 9,499 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAntiphrasis-Based Comparative Constructional Idioms in SpanishCarmen Mellado BlancoThe aim of this study is to show the constructional character of the antiphrasis-based comparative structures in Spanish [SUBJ[anaph] VTENER de S1 como/lo que yo de S2] and [SUBJ[anaph] V[COGN] de S1 como/lo que yo de S2], respectively with the referential meaning 'not to be S1' and 'to not know/understand absolutely anything about S1' and the pragmatic meaning disagreement/criticism.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHow Trainee Translators Analyse Lexico-Grammatical PatternsChris Gledhill, Natalie KüblerIn this study, we examine the ability of advanced students of specialised translation to identify and analyse 'generic collocations' in a corpus of specialised multilingual texts (mostly technical or scientific texts in English, French and German). In general, we find that our students attach much importance to frequently-occurring 'clusters' or 'n-grams'. However the students find it difficult to see these … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 15 Jul 2015 · 8,556 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsConstructions in the Classroom: Examples of a Phraseodidactic Approach for the Teaching of L2 FrenchAmanda EdmondsLanguage learners and language teachers alike have long recognized the fact that there is more to learning a second language than simply learning grammar and vocabulary words. Such an approach misses the fact that there are certain sequences that are preferred by the native speaker, despite the very large number of possible formulations in any given language. Many terms have … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 15 Jul 2015 · 7,910 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRegister-Specific Collocational Constructions in English and Spanish: A Usage-Based ApproachGloria Corpas PastorConstructions are usage-based, conventionalised pairings of form and function within a cline of complexity and schematisation. Most research within Construction Grammar has focused on the monolingual description of schematic constructions: Mainly in English, but to a lesser extent in other languages as well. By contrast, very little constructional analyses have been carried out across languages. In this study we will … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 13 Jul 2015 · 9,711 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Simple and Accurate Relation Between the Logarithm Integral Li(x) and the Primes Counting Function π(x) is Derived Making use of the O.E.I.S. Prime Numbers “Sequences”Paolo AscarelliToday the prime numbers π(x) contained under the number x appears to be somewhat overestimated by the logarithm integral function Li(x) and underestimated by the function x/ln(x), both originally proposed by Gauss around 1792-1796. However, a simple and accurate expression, relating Li(x) and π(x), may be derived using the data reported on the O.E.I.S. “Sequences”. This relation can also suggest … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 30 Sep 2021 · 7,742 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Generic Syntax Analyzer for the Computerization of African LanguagesYahaya Morou Ganda, Harouna Naroua, Bachir Moussa IdiThis article enters within the framework of a contribution to the computerization of African Languages. It presents a generic parsing tool designed for West African languages despite their individual specificities. The genericity of the tool resides in the fact that it is adaptable to any West African language while using a minimum of resources. It only needs an etiquette dictionary … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 4 Mar 2025 · 4,351 accessesView PDFCite
