It serves as a contribution to the study of complementation, an under-researched area of investigation which bridges observations at the intersection of lexico-grammar, syntax and semantics. As a result, the reader develops their understanding of the meaning and use of each pattern within the system of English predicate complementation as it has evolved in recent times. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of English linguistics, especially English grammar. | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | 关键词 | language variation; subject object control; British English (BrE); American English (AmE); Hansard corpu | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-19044-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-19044-6 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerl |
