The  dictionaries  are  Svenska  Akademiens  ordlista  (‘The  Swedish  Academy  glossary’), abbreviated as SAOL, and Svensk ordbok utgiven av Svenska Akademien (‘The Contemporary Dictionary of the Swedish Academy’), abbreviated as SO.

	abstract     = {This article is a corpus-based study of the semantics of pseudocoordination with posture verbs meaning ‘lie’, ‘sit’, and ‘stand’ in the Mainland Scandinavian languages (i.e. Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish). An example is Danish Jeg sidder og læser ‘I am reading’, literally ‘I sit and read’. While many previous studies of posture verb pseudocoordination have focused on the semantic bleaching and grammaticalization of posture verbs, recent research has shown that such developments have so far been very limited and have argued that a proper understanding of posture verb pseudocoordination needs to be sought in the context of pseudocoordination in general, taking into account the role of location. Drawing on frame semantics, the present study shows how the notion of ‘facilitation’ can be applied to shed light on the role of posture: stability of posture at a location for a certain duration facilitates the activity referred to with the last part of the coordination. Based on large data sets, distinctive collexemes are found for posture verbs, i.e. verb collocations showing how each posture facilitates a distinct set of activities. Further, a few collexemes revealing posture verb bleaching are discovered, showing how aspectual grammaticalization may develop.},

The study of sitta och V is preliminary, but the results indicate that the subjective meaning of this construction is less entrenched than that of the gå och V construction and that the subjective overtone of subjectivity may be a result of the combination of the social/cultural meaning of the posture and certain intrinsically pejorative verbs, together with certain locatives.},

Furthermore, errors, gaps as well as other areas of improvement  in  the  dictionary  related  to  cross-referencing  are  discovered.

The construction has several meanings and it also has subordination counterparts in Modern Swedish, unlike most Swedish pseudo-coordinations. Our diachronic study shows that [ga och V] cannot readily be reduced to the verbs in isolation and that synchronic lexicocentric perspectives based on syntactic (re)configurations cannot capture the constructional meaning such as the assumed inference of 'surprise' or 'unexpectedness. We argue that a detailed analysis of the historical development makes the picture clearer. In the development of [ga och V], item-based analogy continuously facilitates new verbs in the V slot. At a certain stage, there is a mismatch between the agentivity of the construction and the non-agentivity of events denoted by the second verb. This mismatch is resolved by the override principle that forces non-agentive verbs to be interpreted agentively and promote a more abstract and lexicalized version of the construction. The exemplar-based view to constructions proposed by Bybee (2010, 2013) seems favorable, since frequent exemplars of [ga och V] allow for redundant or marginal features to serve as the model for novel expansions of the construction.},

	abstract     = {This article studies a special type of verbal coordination in Swedish, pseudocoordination,
which involves two verbs or verb phrases typically combined with och ‘and’. Although it
consists of two verbs with a conjunction between them, pseudocoordination in many
ways behaves like a subordinating complex-predicate construction. In the literature,
pseudocoordination is treated more or less explicitly as a unitary phenomenon, but
previous diachronic studies of some types of pseudocoordination point in slightly
different directions regarding the origin of pseudocoordinations with different first verbs.
It has been claimed that they originate in (canonical) verbal coordinations, but it has also
been claimed that they are originally hypotactic structures in which the conjunction is a
covert infinitival marker (both are typically pronounced in the same way today). To the
best of our knowledge, the gå och V ‘walk/go and V’ construction has not previously been
studied both diachronically and corpus-based. By examining gå och V in historical
corpora, we therefore add to the historical knowledge of pseudocoordination with gå in
Swedish. The gå och V construction is particularly interesting since it has multiple
meanings and since it, unlike the bulk of Swedish pseudocoordinations, also has
subordination counterparts in Modern Swedish.},

Ordbok över konstruktioner och fraser). Representations of Danish counterparts in Den Danske Ordbog are also examined. Aspectual constructions are sometimes difficult to fit into valency patterns, which is why the study focuses on valency, or constructional, information. The study shows that the studied dictionaries differ a good deal in terms of how they treat aspectual constructions. It is proposed that aspectual constructions could benefit from also being described at the constructional level.},

	abstract     = {This  thesis  aims  to  provide  new  insights  into  the  semantic  properties  of  some  progressive constructions  in  Swedish  and  to  provide  better  understanding  of  aspect  in  Swedish.  The  five  
included studies present analyses of previously understudied as well as more familiar progressive constructions, based on authentic language data. 

Constructions with a verb followed by a verbal present participle, e.g. försvinna skrikande ‘disappear screaming’, are analyzed in the first study, and they are labeled progressive participial. It is shown that the verb and the participle, taken together as a construction in a construction-grammar 
sense, yield progressive reading.

More familiar constructions, standardly considered progressive in the literature, are studied in the remaining papers, primarily from a two-componential theory of aspect. The second study analyzes the constructions hålla på att ‘hold on to’ + infinitive verb and hålla på och ‘hold on and’ + finite verb. While the difference between them is usually taken to be primarily stylistic, it is shown that only hålla på att is a progressive marker in a canonical sense.

Posture-verb pseudocoordinations, e.g. sitta ‘sit’/stå ‘stand’/ligga ‘lie’ + och ‘and’ + finite verb, are analyzed in the third study. It is shown that posture-verb pseudocoordinations are not progressive like e.g. hålla på att but instead locative and, in some cases, episodic.

The fourth study returns to the hålla på construction, primarily assessing the pseudocoordinative hålla på och variant in detail, noting its restrictions in terms of compatibility with certain 
types of VP. It is shown that hålla på och does not combine with VPs with homogeneous internal structure, and a pluractional analysis is proposed instead. Finally, as a way to find out the nature of hålla på att constructions, the fifth study investigates constructions of the type <verb + linking element + VP> from the perspectives of e.g. finiteness and aspect.},

	abstract     = {The article focuses on progressive participial constructions, viz. structures with the form verb + verbal present
participle. To date, such constructions have received little attention in grammatical descriptions of Swedish.
On the basis of empirical data, the study provides a characterization of progressive participial constructions
within the framework of Construction Grammar. The constructions are split up into three categories: directive
participial constructions, e.g. komma gående ‘come walking’, locative participial constructions, e.g. bli sittande
‘be(come) sitting’, and additive participial constructions, e.g. springa gråtande ‘run crying’.
The findings suggest that the three types of progressive participial constructions comprise a network of rather
systematic markers of progressive aspect in Swedish. In line with the constructional perspective, analysis of the
data suggests that the encoding of progressive meaning is a constructional rather than a lexical property.},

	abstract     = {The article concentrates on two Swedish verbal constructions: hålla på att + infinite verb and hålla på och + finite verb. Both are considered progressive markers in the literature, and the difference between them is considered primarily stylistic (the former is neutral whereas the latter is judged as informal).

The aim of the article is to argue that there is more to the difference. It is claimed that sentences with hålla på och constructions often have pluractional meaning, i.e., express some sort of iteration of the (sub)events. This makes the status of hålla på och as a “genuine” progressive marker questionable.

Moreover, the article discusses some implications of tense on telicity and event structure. },
