Multiword expressions at length and in depth: Extended papers from the MWE 2017 workshop

by Stella Markantonatou, Carlos Ramisch, Agata Savary

About this book

Multiword expressions pose a challenge because their behavior and meaning cannot always be predicted from their individual words. This collection brings together studies of idioms, light-verb constructions, verb-particle combinations and related expressions across languages.

The chapters connect linguistic analysis with corpus annotation and computational methods for identifying and interpreting these expressions. Topics include idiomatic variation, paraphrases, multilingual datasets, sequence models and the use of lexical resources. This complete original volume expands work presented at the MWE 2017 workshop and preserves its examples, diagrams, references and indexes.
