We also present a small study of the treatment of constructions in Swedish (paper) dictionaries, thus illustrating the need for a constructionist approach, and discuss three different methods used to identify potential constructions for inclusion in the constructicon. SweCxn is a freely available electronic resource, with a particular focus on semi-general linguistic patterns of the type that are difficult to account for from a purely lexicographic or a purely grammatical perspective, and which therefore have tended to be neglected in both dictionaries and grammars. Far from being a small set of borderline cases, such constructions are both numerous and common. They are also quite problematic for second language acquisition as well as LT applications. Accordingly, various kinds of multi-word units have received more attention in recent years, not least from a lexicographic perspective. The coverage, however, is only partial, and the productivity of many constructions is hard to capture from a lexical viewpoint. To identify constructions for SweCxn, we use a combination of methods, such as working from existing construction descriptions for Swedish and other languages, applying LT tools to discover recurring patterns in texts, and extrapolating constructional information from dictionaries. }, booktitle = {Kosem, I., Kallas, J., Gantar, P., Krek, S., Langemets, M., Tuulik, M.

Towards the middle of the 19th century, the first monolingual Danish and Swedish dictionaries were published – somewhat late in an international perspective. Around 1900, work on monumental historical dictionaries of Swedish and Danish started. A similar Norwegian project started somewhat later. The Danish project was finished after 40 years; the Swedish – more ambitious – project will be finished in a few years. As is well known, the introduction of language corpora revolutionized lexicography. This is particularly true of lexicography in Sweden, where a monolingual corpus-based dictionary was published as early as 1986, one year before the COBUILD dictionary. In Denmark, an excellent corpus, including spoken language, was compiled in the 1990s, forming the basis of a six-volume monolingual dictionary now available on the Internet, with excellent search facilities. Likewise, corpus-based lexicography has enjoyed an increasingly strong position in Norway and Iceland. }, journal = {International Journal of Lexicography}, author = {Malmgren, Sven-Göran and Sköldberg, Emma}, year = {2013}, volume = {26}, number = {2}, pages = {117–134}, }
