The chapter presents a case study of the repetition mechanism within the development of discourse formulae, i.e., multi-word formulaic replies similar to yes and no. It closely examines the process of pragmaticalization in the Russian formula Kak že! (‘how part’) and its duplicated counterpart. The diachronic corpus data shows that the formula Kak že! emerged ...

The constructions with the anchor [Noun-Nom Verb (meaning ‘to know’)] are very productive in Russian. In this article we show that variables such as Bog ‘God’, čert ‘devil’ and xer/xren ‘X/horseradish’ have some common patterns, as well as some shifts with exclusive patterns in semantics and constructionalization. ...

The paper presents a multilingual database aimed to be used as a tool for typological analysis of response constructions called discourse formulae (DF), cf. English ‘No way¡ or French ‘Ça va¡(‘all right’). The two primary qualities that make DF of theoretical interest for linguists are their idiomaticity and the special nature of their meanings (cf. ...

This paper discusses the frame method developed by Moscow lexical typology group in application to pragmatic constructions, namely, discourse formulae (idiomatic answers like Fair enough or You bet!). The methods of data collection and analysis are illustrated with a case study of negative discourse formulae in four Slavic languages. The study shows how the field of negation is organized, and how answering strategies differ in ...

The paper discusses semantic description of the so-called discourse formulae, idiomatic expressions used as speaker's reactions in a dialogue. They are considered in the framework of construction grammar, as a peripheral class of constructions with its specific properties. A case study of two synonymous Russian discourse formulae TY ČTO and ČTO TY provides an account ...

In this paper, we address the problem of automatic extraction of discourse formulae. By discourse formulae (DF) we mean a special type of constructions at the discourse level, which have a fixed form and serve as a typical response in the dialogue. Unlike traditional constructions [4, 5, 6], they do not contain variables within the ...
