Verb meaning and the lexicon : a first-phase syntax/
Ramchand,Gillian R
Verb meaning and the lexicon : a first-phase syntax/ Gillian Catriona Ramchand - Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2008. - x, 217 p. : ill. ; 24 cm. Book
Includes bibliographical references (p. [205]-214) and index.
This abstract explores verb meaning within the lexicon, examining how semantic structure, argument realization, and
contextual variation shape verbal interpretation. It highlights the interaction between lexical representations and syntactic patterns,
arguing that verb meaning is not fixed but dynamically constrained by event structure and usage. The discussion integrates insights from
lexical semantics and cognitive linguistics to show how the lexicon encodes core verb meanings while allowing flexibility across constructions and contexts. http://172.20.27.22:4000/handle/123456789/68
