Contents of the Course
This course explores the phraseology of English. Phraseology can be defined as "the study of the structure, meaning and use of word combinations" (Cowie 1994). It embraces the view of language that lexis and grammar are inseparable. The field has boomed in recent years, chiefly due to advances in corpus linguistics methods for identifying phraseological patterns.
