Overview

Examines intensified comparatives in Russian, revealing their unique syntactic and semantic interactions.

Key Points

  • The aim is to explore the interaction of intensifiers within comparative constructions in Russian, identifying their merging into a unique entity.
  • Examined the Russian Constructicon focusing on intensifiers and comparative constructions.
  • Analyzed the syntactic and morphological rules governing the interaction of these constructions.
  • Investigated less obvious restrictions such as aspectual classes of verbs within comparative contexts.
  • Identified distinct merging rules for intensified comparatives that differ from standard comparative and intensifying constructions.
  • Demonstrated that these merged constructions possess unique properties not reducible to their individual components.
