Verb Complementation in South Asian Englishes [2008-2011]

The project aims to take into account all complementation patterns that ditransitive verbs such as to give can take in order to evaluate whether, and to which extent, differences in verb complementation between South Asian Englishes and British English are dependent on various lexicogrammatical factors (e.g. variation in collocational profiles; pronominality, animacy, or syntactic complexity of the arguments; influences from indigenous languages). More Information can be found on the project's website in the DFG's research database.
