La construction à verbes de nomination : la voilà parachutée construction !

Boekbijdrage - Boekhoofdstuk Conferentiebijdrage

Ondertitel:The nomination verb construction : now catapulted to (the rank of) construction!
In this article, we take up the challenge to list the verbs that occur in one of the rare "resultative" constructions available in French, i.e. the Nomination Verb Construction ( = NVC) (e.g. Napoleon est sacre empereur des Francais 'Napoleon is consecrated emperor of the French'). Based on the results of our research, we show that the NVC is a construction (in the sense of Construction Grammar (cf. Goldberg 1995)), which turns out to be quite productive: indeed, it appears that a great number of verbs which belong to various semantic classes are accepted in the NVC, sometimes independently of their specific lexical restrictions.
