What is Constructionalization in Linguistics about?

This chapter discusses constructional approaches to language and how they can account for language change and development. It introduces key concepts in construction grammar like schematicity and productivity. It also discusses different types of constructional changes and mechanisms of change, and how a usage-based, constructional view provides insights into gradual, emergent processes of language change.
