MARTINEZ LOPEZ, Juan A.. PATTERNS AND FREQUENCY INDEX IN SOME ADVERBIAL LOCUTIONS. Forma funcion, Santaf, de Bogot, D.C. [online]. 2007, n.20, pp.59-78. ISSN 0120-338X.

This paper is focussing on the morph-syntactic structure of the adverbial expressions, more specifically on those beginning with the preposition a. The material is taken from two diccionaries: one general diccionary as the Diccionario de la Real Academia de la Lengua Española drae and another phraseological diccionary, the Diccionario de Locuciones y Expresiones Familiares. Once identified all the relevant structures, we have continued with estableshing a functional pattern, something which has made it possible for us to observe which structures are the productive ones, that can be used as a base for new examples, and which are less efficient patterns when talking about reproduction and the creation of new units.

Palabras clave : patterns; morph-syntactic structure; adverbial expression; frequency.
