Summary
Phraseology has been acquiring increasing relevance in the fields of linguistics, lexicography and language teaching. This volume brings together data from a variety of sources to arrive at a better understanding and description of various types of ‘phrases’ and ‘phraseological units’ as used in ‘real’ language. The different approaches and objectives of the papers attest to the pervasiveness of phraseology in different languages, sub-languages and registers. The role of different types of corpora is highlighted and native speakers’ expectations, culture-specific factors, context-dependent choices and genre specifications are explored.
