Résumé

This paper focuses on three Ancient Greek constructions, which have the same surface structure N0 ékhein N1 en N2, but different lexical, semantic and syntactic features. The aim of the study is to give an account of these differences by investigating: (a) the value of both the prepositional phrase and the noun phrases occurring in the clauses; (b) the relationship between syntactic functions and lexical-semantic features. The investigation is corpus-based and follows the Lexicon-Grammar approach. On the one hand, results are expected to contribute to the debate on the interaction between lexical categories and syntactic functions; on the other hand, they wish to provide analyses of Ancient Greek constructions, in order to stimulate reflections on the diachrony of the Greek language.
