The impact of this development has the potential to uproot our traditional understanding of T&I. This article sets out to describe how ELF...

The research on denominal verbal units showed that novel meaning formation is always contextually dependent. The redistribution of semes is caused by the influence of contextual qualifiers, resulting in the formation of new inner structural relations that lead to the formation of novel meanings of the verb.
