Abstract: |
This dataset concerns the Russian construction where the same noun occurs in the nominative and instrumental cases, such as durak durakom ‘ultimate fool’. The dataset contains examples excerpted from the Russian National Corpus (ruscorpora.ru). |
|
Article abstract: On the basis of data from the Russian National Corpus, we analyze the meanings and structure of the syntactic construction observed in phrases like дурак дураком, which we term the “NOM-INS construction”. We argue that the construction constitutes a network of three closely related subcategories, which we refer to as “Extreme”, “Paragon” and “Topic change”. It is furthermore shown that a diachronic change has taken place, whereby Topic Change has taken over for Extreme as the dominant subcategory. Our analysis provides ample evidence for the main tenets of Construction Grammar, namely that a language is a network of related constructions, that meaning is often not compositional, that there is a continuum from idiomatic to schematic uses of constructions, and that constructions evolve over time. |
