Construction Grammar across Borders
Since its foundation in the 1980's, Construction Grammar has been crossing the traditionally imposed borders. From superimposed levels of analysis to the lexicon-grammar continuum, the constructionist approach to language has been built by, quoting Charles Fillmore, "the insistence on seeing specific grammatical patterns as serving given semantic (and often pragmatic) purposes, and in the effort to construct a uniform theory capable of presenting both the simplest and most general aspects of language and the large world of complex grammatical structures". In this volume, five chapters derived from the plenary talks at the 9th International Conference on Construction Grammar provide a sample of the bridges the insistence and effort of construction grammarians have built in the past three decades with other analytical models – namely Cognitive Grammar and Collostructional Analysis –, perspectives – Diachronic Construction Grammar – and applications – Language Pedagogy and Natural Language Understanding. Originally published as special issue of Constructions and Frames 12:1 (2020).
Socio-Pragmatic Variation in Ireland
Pragmatics represents the study of language use in socially grounded contexts and it is thus a central discipline in Linguistics. Due to its focus on language use, it has been referred to as a transdiscipline that interacts with a broad variety of disciplines that are concerned with social action and, as such, pragmatics overlaps with many other linguistic and non-linguistic disciplines. Irish English is one of the earliest varieties of English to have attracted the interest of scholars working on pragmatic variation. From a sociolinguistic and a pragmatics perspective, it represents one of the best studied varieties of English and can thus be argued to offer important impulses to the study of variationist pragmatics in general. Ulster Scots, though in close contact with Irish English, has received less attention. Given this important position of Irish English in pragmatics research and the paucity of such research on (Ulster) Scots, this volume explicitly focuses on socio-pragmatics and deals with the way speakers in and around Ireland use language in a way so that it assists them in the construction of their social identities or helps them navigate socio-cultural spaces.
A Construction Grammar of the English Language
The present book provides an introduction to the linguistic model of Construction Grammar, offering a full analysis of the grammar of the English language. It covers all levels of morpho-syntactic form-meaning units: including sentence types, tense and aspect, argument structure, phrases, idioms, word and morphological constructions. In line with its usage-based approach, all constructions are discussed using authentic corpus examples. In order to illustrate how constructions can be learnt, the book draws on authentic data from child language. Furthermore, corpus analysis is used to show which lexical items typically occur in the slots of constructions and make up their ‘collo-profile’. A key feature of the book is that it develops a systematic method for showing how constructions combine to form actual utterances. For this purpose, so-called ‘construction grids’ are developed which contain all the constructions that make up even the most complex sentences and show points of overlap between them.
A (des)articulação das práticas de linguagem no livro didático de Língua Portuguesa
O objetivo deste e-book é socializar experiências investigativas de estudantes do curso de Letras/Português do 6º Bloco da UESPI/Parnaíba, no componente curricular Metodologia do Ensino da Língua Portuguesa como premissa de que fazer universidade significa viver as instâncias de ensino, extensão e pesquisa. Nele, os leitores encontram reflexões analíticas sobre alguns livros didáticos de Língua Portuguesa mais utilizados nas redes públicas e privadas do país, principalmente no Piauí. Com base nesta proposta de análise, os (as) pesquisadores tomaram como aporte as obras que orientam o ensino de Língua Portuguesa na contemporaneidade, especificamente quanto à articulação das práticas dos eixos de linguagem propostas na BNCC para a educação básica. Acreditamos que a contribuição é fomentar outros diálogos em diferentes espaços de interlocução em que as práticas discursivas acontecem, sejam no sentido de libertar o docente das amarras de uma metodologia calcada na metalinguagem, sejam para sugerir uma abordagem epilinguística que concebe a língua/linguagem na sua pluralidade de manifestação.

Constructicography
In constructionist theory, a constructicon is an inventory of constructions making up the full set of linguistic units in a language. In applied practice, it is a set of construction descriptions - a "dictionary of constructions". The development of constructicons in the latter sense typically means combining principles of both construction grammar and lexicography, and is probably best characterized as a blend between the two traditions. We call this blend constructicography. The present volume is a comprehensive introduction to the emerging field of constructicography. After a general introduction follow six chapters presenting constructicon projects for English, German, Japanese, Brazilia...
Estudos sobre linguagens
Esta obra é resultado de estudos realizados por pesquisadores de pós-graduação Lato Sensu e Stricto Sensu, da Universidade Estadual da Paraíba, da Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco, da Universidade Federal de São Carlos e da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul. Todos os textos contribuem com discussões teóricas, analíticas e práticas acerca do ensino de línguas e de literaturas. É uma obra atual com o intuito de dar subsídios para estudantes e profissionais da linguagem.
Construction Grammars
Addressing a number of issues (such as coercion, discourse patterning, language change), the contributions show how CxG must be part and parcel of cognitively oriented studies of language, including language universals."--Jacket.
Delírios do verbo pegar
Este livro reflete a polissemia do verbo pegar e mostra as motivações sócio-cognitivas que regem os usos desse verbo. Fruto do trabalho de uma pesquisa acadêmica de mestrado que evidencia que nossa língua é viva e vai muito além dos sentidos engessados do dicionário, que por sua vez busca estabilizar os sentidos. Este livro assume uma postura que vai na contramão do que os dicionários pregam, vai além da Semântica Tradicional. É responsável por elucidar questões sociais e cognitivas que estão atreladas aos sentidos do verbo pegar, trazendo contribuições para Semântica Cognitiva e estudos lexicográficos da língua. Aqui o leitor poderá refletir sobre os diversos sentidos do verbo pegar e também será convidado a refletir sobre os sentidos de outros verbos. Além de questionar o motivo pelo qual utilizamos tanto construções como "A professora pegou e falou que não teria tarefa..." se poderíamos apenas usar o segundo verbo. Existe uma motivação para essa construção e eu explico e trago essa explicação através da leitura desse livro. Boa leitura!
