constructioncomposed
Constructioncomposed is a term used in linguistic theory to describe a perspective within construction grammar that foregrounds the compositional assembly of complex constructions from smaller, meaning-bearing units. It treats language as a repertoire of constructions—pairings of form and meaning—whose overall semantics emerges from the interaction of their constituent parts and their syntactic configuration. The term is used to emphasize that composition is not only structural but semantic and functional across units, allowing both idiomatic and productive expressions to be analyzed within the same framework.
Origin and usage: The phrase has appeared in recent theoretical writing and discussions on computational modeling
Theoretical approach: In a constructioncomposed account, analysts map expressions to layered representations: primitive constructions and their
Applications and reception: In computational linguistics, constructioncomposed ideas inform parsing, semantic interpretation, and language modeling by
