QUINTERO RAMIREZ, Sara. ANALYSIS OF NOUN PHRASES WITH THE STRUCTURE NOUN + PREPOSITION + INFINITIVE IN SPORTS NEWSPAPER ARTICLES. Linguist.lit. [online]. 2023, n.84, pp.185-204.  Epub 30-Nov-2023. ISSN 0120-5587.  https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.lyl.n84a08.

In this article, we characterize the noun + preposition + infinitive structures in a corpus of sports news in Spanish. First, we register and count the structures in question. Next, we identify the link prepositions between the name and the infinitive, as well as the meaning they give to the syntagm. Subsequently, we recognize the most recurrent nouns that are modified by an infinitive. Finally, we determine the syntactic function of these constructions in the different sentences’ contexts of the corpus. With this article, we want to contribute to studies on sports journalism discourse.

Palabras clave : infinitive; noun; preposition; noun complement; sports newspaper articles.
