The Grammaticon

Maturity level: intermediate

The Grammaticon stores the constructional schemata which help Role and Reference Grammar to construct the syntax-to-semantics linking algorithm. More particularly, the Grammaticon is composed of several Constructicon modules that are inspired in the four levels of the Lexical-Constructional Model, i.e. argumental, implicational, illocutionary and discursive.
