Resumen

Este artículo presenta las principales características gramaticales de las construcciones inglesas generalmente denominadas construcciones transitivas complejas (Quirk et al., 1985), causativas resultantes (Goldberg and Jackendoff, 2004) y construcciones de movimiento causado (Goldberg, 1995, 2006, 2018). Se afirma, a la luz de algunos estudios empíricos basados en corpus (Hampe, 2010; Rosa, 2020; Xia, 2017), que las construcciones fraseológicas de bajo nivel como talk some sense into somebody’ desempeñan un papel crucial a la hora de motivar el afianzamiento y el uso de movimientos muy esquemáticos provocados como ‘Frank sneezed the foam off the cappuccino’. Para respaldar este punto de vista con datos empíricos, presentamos el análisis de 1284 expresiones de movimiento causado extraídas del Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA), de las cuales pudimos identificar 12 expresiones fijas y 9 fraseologismos comprobados estadísticamente. Por último, discutimos las implicaciones que dicha relación entre gramática y fraseología puede presentar en la comprensión de estructuras esquemáticas como el movimiento causado.
