Sažetak
Corpus studies of idioms in different European languages show that they vary their lexico- syntactic structure regularly and variations may become institutionalized through frequent use. Furthermore, idioms are often creatively exploited in discourse and idiom modifications, i.e. ad hoc manipulations created for a particular communicative purpose in a particular context, are widespread. Cognitive linguistic studies show that modifications are constrained by cognitive mechanisms motivating idiomatic meanings. However, most studies of idiom modifications focus almost exclusively on semantic constraints, whereas constructional factors have not been taken into account. Given the symbolic nature of grammar in Cognitive Linguistics, it can be assumed that the ways in which idioms can be manipulated are dependent on and constrained by constructional schemas. This talk explores modifications of verb phrase idioms in English and Croatian, using corpus data. The focus is on nominalization and structural changes (passivization, causative and non-causative constructions, directional opposites). The aim is to show that meaning and grammatical structure go hand in hand in restricting idiom modifications, and that similar restrictions apply in both institutionalized variations and modifications. Overall, although idiom modifications are impossible to predict, they exhibit conventionality on the conceptual- grammatical level.
