Inheritance relations between constructions and between frames: challenges to the extension of the constructionist approach to the computational domain in FrameNet Brasil

ABSTRACT

This paper aims to discuss to what extent analytical practices that are already a milestone in Cognitive Linguistics can be extended to the realm of Computational Linguistics. Specifically, we aim to investigate whether inheritance relations between constructions - a pairing of a form evoking a frame - which are computationally represented in a Constructicon, may parallel frame-to-frame relations in the FrameNet Brasil database.
