Description In this talk, I will discuss how lexical patterns in language can tell us about the way language is represented in the mind. Case studies will be presented at two levels: I will first show how the constructional profile of a given lemma can be indicative of its lexical semantics. In addition, I will show how findings of lexical patterns can be applied to the analysis of rhetoric structure. At the end of the talk I will return to how such findings have implications on the way we view language.
