Optimal constructions

Abstract: first draft version -This paper deals with a well-known problem in the discussion of argument linking, the flexibility that we find with particular verbs, and the constraints governing the integration of verbs with so-called argument structure constructions. We will show that traditional approaches as well as construction grammar need additional machinery to deal with variable argument linking. I will present an optimisation approach to variable argument linking that uses construction grammar as format for mor… Show more

“…19 I indeed assume that the syntactic inventory of a language can be described in the same way. So what is developed here is a more general model of a constructionist OT syntax, in continuation of some of my earlier work (Vogel 2016 Only front high stem vowels avoid a violation of MFaith for (5c). As for group A, the a → i shift that would be necessary to fulfi l (5c) requires that two features of the stem vowel have to be changed.…”
