Ein Kapitel aus dem Buch Constructions in Spanish

Abstract

In this chapter we present a holistic analysis of instances of the constructional idiom [a TODO Nsg], as conceived, both theoretically and methodologically, from the perspective of Construction Grammar (Croft, 2001; Goldberg, 2006). The construction under scrutiny here presents a high degree of fixedness in use. Its free slot, as the reference corpora consulted have shown, is filled preferentially by a series of nouns with intensifying properties, especially those referring to speed, loudness, power, and luxury or comfort.
