MWEs: Support/light Verb Constructions vs Fixed Expressions in Modern Greek and French
Résumé
The paper reports on a study aimed at defining the limits between fixed expressions and Support Verb Constructions. To this end, a set of formal criteria that are applicable for the efficient classification of verbal MWEs were checked consistently against data in Greek and French. Ultimately, the delineation of the two types of constructions and their intermediate class is crucial not only for linguistic and lexicographic purposes, but also for Natural Language Processing tasks.
