Resumen de Lexical units and syntactic constructions: the caused-motion construction

Marta Rebolledo Lemus, Margarita Alonso-Ramos

To study this question, we examine the relation between the caused-motion construction and lexical units that can enter into in two theoretical models: FrameNet and Meaning Text Theory.
