Determining the structure of lexical entries and grammatical constructions in Construction Grammar (2008, methodology): “Following previous work by Kay (1996, 2002b), Nemoto (1998), and Boas (2003ab), I propose that the problems discussed above are due to the fact that the interactions between lexical entries and meaningful grammatical constructions are difficult to constrain.”
The myth of language universals: language diversity and its importance for cognitive science. (2009, background): “Rather, they are descriptive labels, emerging from structural facts of particular languages, which work well in some languages but may be problematic or absent in others (cf. Croft 2001).”
The nature of generalization in language (2009, background): “Embracing a constructionist approach to language does not, of course, relieve us of the burden of explaining cross-linguistic generalizations (Ch. 9; see also Croft 2001).”
Digging up the building blocks of language: Age-of-acquisition effects for multiword phrases (2017, background): “Instead, our findings are better accommodated by a single-system view of language (Bybee, 1998; Christiansen & Chater, 2016a,b; Croft, 2001; Elman, 2009; Langacker, 1987; McClelland et al., 2010; Wray, 2002) where all linguistic experience is processed by similar cognitive mechanisms.”
