摘要

当涉及到主体可以表达的语义角色时，英语经常与德语和荷兰语形成对比（Hawkins 1986；Los和Dreschler，2012年）。具体来说，英语似乎有更多的中间层（她拍得很好），并允许不寻常的无生命主题（小屋可睡四个人）。然而，荷兰语中语法主语的语义似乎也在变化，最近网站和广告中的例子就证明了这一点，比如Uw fietsinstalling verbetert和Presikhaaf vernieuwt。尽管这些句子没有荷兰语中典型的中间副词（Broekhuis，Corver&Vos 2015: 455及其后），它们满足中间队形的其他几个要求。在本文中，我分析了一个这样的动词vernieuwen的例子，并确定了这个主要是及物动词的两种不同类型的不及物用法。我认为歧义、类比和体裁在论证结构的变化中都起着重要作用。

Changes in argument structure

English is often contrasted with German and Dutch when it comes to the semantic roles that the subject can express (Hawkins 1986; Los & Dreschler 2012). Specifically, English seems to have more middles (She photographs well) and allows for unusual inanimate subjects (The cottage sleeps four). However, it seems that the semantics of the grammatical subject in Dutch are also changing, as witnessed by recent examples from websites and advertisements, such as Uw fietsenstalling verbetert and Presikhaaf vernieuwt. Although these sentences do not have the adverb that is typical of middles in Dutch (Broekhuis, Corver & Vos 2015: 455ff.), they meet several other requirements for middle formation. In this paper, I analyse examples with one such verb, vernieuwen, and identify two different types of intransitive uses for this predominantly transitive verb. I argue that ambiguity, analogy and genre all play an important role in this change in argument structure.

Each volume contains a careful selection through peer review of papers presented at the annual meeting of the society. The aim of the annual meeting is to provide members with an opportunity to report on their work in progress. Each volume presents an overview of research in different fields of linguistics in the Netherlands containing articles on phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax and semantics.
