Compounds and multi-word expressions in Finnish
Irma Hyvärinen · 2018
An overview of phraseology with examples from several European languages, e. g.German, English, French, Swedish and Finnish, is given by Korhonen (2018).4 In Finnish, non-idiomatic MWEs have been studied primarily in terminology with a focus on nominal terms.It can be assumed that ongoing studies in computational linguistics will shed more light on the proportion of non-idiomatic MWEs in standard language, too. 5 In the examples, the compound constituent boundaries are marked with "+", if needed.Occasionally Finnish case form abbreviations are used as subscripts: all = allative, elat = elative, gen = genitive, ill = illative, iness = inessive, part = partitive.
