A word, a part of a word or a chain of words that forms the basic elements of the vocabulary of a language is known as a lexical unit. Generally, lexical units convey a single meaning but they are not limited to single words. Lexis refers to the entire store of lexical units in a language. Complex lexical units can be both, compounds and multi-word expressions that are made up of at least two constituents. Compounds are morphological objects and multi-word expressions that arise from syntactic processes. The exact demarcation between these two varies greatly from language to language. This book includes some of the vital pieces of work being conducted across the world, on various topics related to complex lexical units. It strives to provide a fair idea about this discipline and to help develop a better understanding of the latest advances within this field. This book is a vital tool for all researching and studying this field.

Both compounds and multi-word expressions are complex lexical units, made up of at least two constituents. The most basic difference is that the former are morphological objects and the latter result from syntactic processes. However, the exact demarcation between compounds and multi-word expressions differs greatly from language to language and is often a matter of debate in and across languages. Similarly debated is whether and how these two different kinds of units complement or compete with each other. The volume presents an overview of compounds and multi-word expressions in a variety of European languages. Central questions that are discussed for each language concern the formal distinction between compounds and multi-word expressions, their formation and their status in lexicon and grammar. The volume contains chapters on German, English, Dutch, French, Italian, Spanish, Greek, Russian, Polish, Finnish, and Hungarian as well as a contrastive overview with a focus on German. It brings together insights from word-formation theory, phraseology and theory of grammar and aims to contribute to the understanding of the lexicon, both from a language-specific and cross-linguistic perspective.
