It reveals the unique characteristics of Chinese MWEs by examining their core attributes, identification and classification, and knowledge framework. It also assesses, for the first time, the distribution and density of Chinese MWEs in textbooks. By doing so, the book provides important insights into Chinese language learning, with implications for natural language processing, lexicography, and psychology. Moreover, it offers a framework for linguists, language teachers and learners, computer scientists, lexicographers, and psychologists to explore their own areas of interest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbstract\tChapter 1   Introduction\t1.1\tResearch issues and objectives\t1.2\tImpact of this research\t1.3\tThe structure of the book\tChapter 2  Definition and criteria of Chinese MWEs\t2.1\tThe terms and definitions of MWEs\t2.1.1\tTerms\t2.1.2\tDefinitions\t2.1.3\tThe nature of MWEs\t2.1.4\tThe definition of MWEs in this study\t2.2\tIdentification and extraction of MWEs\t2.3\tCriteria of Chinese MWEs in this study\tChapter 3  Extract MWEs from textbooks\t3.1\tConstruction of the CSL Textbook Corpus\t3.1.1 Selection of textbooks\t3.1.2 Processing of texts from the textbooks\t3.1.3 General information of the textbook corpus\t3.2\tConstruction of the MWEs Corpus of CSL Textbooks\t3.2.1 Extracting MWEs from textbooks\t3.2.2 Standardization of MWEs’ variants\t3.2.3 Examples of the MWEs Corpus of CSL Textbooks\t3.3\tMWEs in four sets of Chinese textbooks\t3.3.1\tMWEs’ general information in four sets of textbooks\t3.3.2\tAnalysis based on textbooks\t3.3.3\tAnalysis based on levels\/volumes\t3.3.4\tThe enlightenment to teaching according to the distribution of MWEs\tChapter 4  Classification of MWEs\t4.1\tExisting Classification of MWEs\t4.2\tClassification of MWEs in this research\t4.3\tCharacteristics of each category of MWEs\t4.3.1\tIdioms\t4.3.2\tPolite formulas\t4.3.3\tConventionalized expressions\t4.3.4\tParentheses\t4.3.5\tHigh frequency collocations\t4.3.6\tFrame structures\t4.3.7\tClassifier phrases\t4.3.8\tSummary of the characteristics of different categories of MWEs\t4.5\tCategories of MWEs in the textbooks\t4.5.1\tDistribution of different categories of MWEs in four sets of textbooks\t4.5.2\tMWEs’ categories in different levels of textbooks\t4.5.3 High frequency MWEs in textbooks\t4.5.4 Enlightenments to teaching from the distribution of MWEs\tChapter 5  Knowledge Framework of Chinese MWEs\t5.1\tForm\t5.1.1\tPronunciation\t5.1.2\tOrthography\t5.1.3\tMWE Parts\t5.1.4\tForm standardization of MWEs\t5.2\tMeaning\t5.2.1\tSemantic Features of MWEs\t5.2.2\tInterpretation of MWEs\t5.2.3\tSemantic Relationships of MWEs\t5.3\tUse\t5.3.1\tGrammatical functions of MWEs\t5.3.2\tExample sentences\t5.3.3\tConstraints on use\t5.4\tCompositionality\t5.4.1\tSemantic transparency\t5.4.2\tSyntactic analyzability\t5.4.3\tNon-literal meanings\t5.5\tConstruction of the MWEs Knowledge Base\t5.5.1  Information of the MWEs Knowledge Base\t5.5.2  Deep Knowledge Annotation to MWEs\t5.6\tApplication of the MWEs Knowledge Base\t5.6.1\tThe treatment of MWEs in four sets of textbooks\t5.6.2\tSuggestions for improving MWE content in textbooks\t5.6.3\tApplication of the MWEs Knowledge Base\tChapter 6  Conclusions and future work\t6.1\tConclusions\t6.2\tFuture work","brand":"Springer Verlag, Singapore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53518300676439,"sku":"9789811385124","price":999.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/chinese-multiword-expressions-theoretical-and-practical-perspectives-9789811385124","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
