| Abstract |
This contribution focuses on the status of complex collocations in pattern-based learner’s dictionaries, reporting on findings of the ongoing corpus-based project Pattern-based learner’s lexicography (Hildesheim University/Heidelberg University). After comparing recursively built complex collocations with argument-related complex collocations, the paper concentrates on the latter type and its functions. On the one hand, complex collocations displaying argument complementarity efficiently support the identification and formulation of sense patterns. On the other hand, they can serve different purposes within the microstructure of a pattern-based dictionary, namely as semantic types of sense patterns or as lexicographic items in a subordinate treatment unit. Argument-related complex collocations are phraseological lexicalisations of the conceptual scenes provided by sense patterns, and are therefore of key importance to language learners. The challenges related to the extraction of complex collocations from corpora are also addressed in the paper, and proposals are made for improving time efficiency, coverage, and quality of extracted candidates in future research. |
