This volume builds on previous constructionist work, in particular Diasystematic Construction Grammar (DCxG) and the volume Constructions in Contact (2018) and extends its methodology and insights in three major ways. First, it presents new constructional research on a wide range of language contact scenarios including Afrikaans, American Sign Language, English, French, Malayalam, Norwegian, Spanish, Welsh, as well as contact scenarios that involve typologically different languages. Second, it also addresses other types of scenarios that do not fall into the classic language contact category, such as multilingual practices and language acquisition as emerging multilingualism. Third, it aims to integrate constructionist views on language contact and multilingualism with other approaches that focus on structural, social, and cognitive aspects. The volume demonstrates that Construction Grammar is a framework particularly well suited for analyzing a wide variety of language contact phenomena from a usage-based perspective. 30 6 3 2021 5 19 2021 9789027208620 9789027259974 John Benjamins Publishing Company Amsterdam 10.1075/cal.30 http://www.jbe-platform.com/content/books/9789027259974 https://www.jbe-platform.com/deliver/fulltext/9789027259974.pdf https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1075/cal.30/html Kristel Van Goethem F.R.S.-FNRS https://ror.org/03q83t159 Université catholique de Louvain https://ror.org/02495e989 https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2576-9011 Isa Hendrikx Université catholique de Louvain https://ror.org/02495e989 https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6441-9746 A diasystematic-constructionist approach Abstract This study analyzes the acquisition of Dutch intensifying constructions by French-speaking learners in Belgium. Additionally, it compares learners enrolled in Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) programs with learners following traditional second language instruction. Within the framework of Diasystematic Construction Grammar , we study the potential impact of CLIL on the acquisition of Dutch intensification by conducting an in-depth constructional analysis at three different levels of schematization. The results of our study indicate that a beneficial CLIL effect is apparent throughout the different levels of abstraction. Moreover, the results allow us to unveil specific reorganizational processes that occur in the diasystem of French-speaking learners of Dutch, such as the overgeneralization of particular schematic patterns and the inaccurate tagging of specific intensifiers. 6 3 2021 5 19 2021 375 428 10.1075/cal.30.12van https://benjamins.com/catalog/cal.30.12van https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1075/cal.30.12van/html 10.1017/S1366728905002397 10.21832/9781847693389-004 In het teken van identiteit.
