"Lexicalization Patterns"

Á propos patterns of lexicalization in the Ethiopian Language Area.

She has written about syntax, pragmatics, semantics, lexicalization, socio-historical linguistics, linguistics, and literature.

Since lexicalization may modify lexeme phonologically and morphologically it is possible, that a single etymological source may be borrowed in two or more forms into a single lexicon.

Hayward has also pointed out patterns of lexicalization as evidence of a shared linguistic unity across the Language Area (1999, 2000) and Treis has found further examples of this (2010).

Complementing the base with biologically-oriented 'tracts' (sometimes referred to in early JG literature as levels of representation) specializing in the distinct data types required to support lexicalization, articulation, orthography, etc.

He gives the example of Hopper and Traugott (1993) who treat some putative counterexamples as cases of lexicalization, where a grammatical form is incorporated into a lexical item but does not itself become a lexical item.

Christian Lehmann (1982): Writer of Thoughts on Grammaticalization and New Reflections on Grammaticalization and Lexicalization, wrote that "Grammaticalization is a process leading from lexemes to grammatical formatives.

In addition to traditional examples of grammaticalization (for example, 'wanna' from 'want to' or 'gonna' from 'going to', etc.), traditional examples of lexicalization (for example, 'forever' from 'for ever', 'nonetheless' from 'non the less', etc.) make new morphemes.

Talmy refers to these as "lexicalization patterns," a term which remains unclear to me, given that few of the examples given in his discussion are lexical items, and most interpretations of "different types of causation incorporated in the verb root" are in fact wholly dependent on other morphosyntactic material in the clause.

In psycholinguistics, lexicalisation is the process of going from meaning to sound in speech production.

When we produce a word, we are essentially turning our thoughts into sounds, a process known as lexicalisation.

However, most of these proposals show a lack of understanding of the hypothesis or of the history of the languages in question, and are instead examples of lexicalisation.
