Sascha and Manfred presented a poster on their recent joint work on the syntactic flexibility of non-decomposable idioms, which they want to submit to the planned edited volume “Multiword Expressions: Insights from a Multi-lingual Perspective”.
An abstract to this contribution can be downloaded. Comments are welcome!
The discussion with the network colleagues was very fruitful, especially since many of them had observed syntactic flexibility of non-decomposable idioms in the languages that they are working on, too.
