This is a big challenge - but just because something is big doesnt mean you shouldnt do it - just like for the universe, we are finding out more and more about the systematic ways that the network of language is organised #multiccon

However the internal structure of this network is still largely uncharted territory. This is where "constructicography" comes in. #multiccon

There have been a number of projects which have started to develop constructica for different languages, such as English, German, Swedish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian and Japanese, reflected in a number of publications such as #multiccon

We know about some of the factors that influence these relations, similarly to how we know about gravity - but the whole network is vast and we can only try to figure out parts of it step by step #multiccon

Diessel argues that some aspects of constructions have been neglected: They include sequential units/chunks & they are often hierarchically structured + we need a dynamic model of constructions and construction networks #multiccon

Constructional schemas emerge as generalizations over lexical sequences - this is especially evident in first language acquisition #multiccon

Diessel defines the argument structure network as a probabilistic network with associative relations - argument structure is not only semantically motivated but also subject to processes such as entrenchment & frequency #multiccon

Diessel distinguishs between N-schemas (referring) and V-schemas (predicating) - the associative relations of these schemas to lexical items and constructions are different in every language - but the existence of these two schemas is universal #multiccon

"What connects the different constructicon projects is that they are all very different" - so can we find a common computational and analytical infrastructure? How can we align constructions across languages? #multiccon
