Adopt a Construction: Towards an Italian Constructicon
AdoC – Adopt a Construction is a research project that aims to build the first Italian constructicon (ItCon), i.e., a digital resource that hosts a database of constructions (conventionalized associations of form and function) connected by various types of links, a corpus of annotated examples for constructions, and an intuitive web interface that allows (expert and non-expert users) to consult the resource and ‘adopt’ new constructions.
