| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
On the basis of analyses of Japanese constructions for the purpose of building a constructicon in the Japanese FrameNet (JFN) project, it became clear, through this research project, that grammatical constructions can be classified based on whether they evoke frames or not. Recognizing such a distinction among constructions enabled FrameNet-style linguistic resources to have a proper division of labor between frame annotations and construction annotations. Moreover, in addition to the three kinds of “meaningless” constructions which have been proposed already, this research project suggested that there is yet another subtype of constructions without meanings. Furthermore, the research project adds supported to the claim that there may be constructions without meanings (Fillmore, Lee-Goldman & Rhomieux, 2012) in a current debate concerning whether all constructions should be seen as meaning-bearing (Goldberg, 2006: 166-182).
