Description |
The traditional English verb classifi cation based upon their grammatical meaning is a certain matrix accordingto which new units are grouped. The present investigation is aimed at integral describing the verbs of the ‘give’ typein the model “to give a smile”. The analysis of its constituents does not give any new information, however, its analysisas an integral unit in the sentence and discourse can reveal it as a structural-semantic unity, wherein a redistributionof the lexical meaning takes place. Since Otto Jespersen defi ned them as “light verbs" they have been in the focusof research of grammarians, semanticists, discourse experts, and cognitologists. In the framework of our researchthe referred verbs in the given model are presented as the result of grammaticalization and lexicalization — majorfactors of the English language development.
