초록
The current study explores a construction [get a post-verbal-argument] (e.g. get a look at/ride/shower) and attempts to show that this construction can be considered as one of the light verb constructions (LVC): its form, meaning, and some syntactic behaviors exhibit the characteristics of typical LVCs. The get LVC has similar semantic properties with take/have LVCs, but the get LVC involves more passiveness (i.e., the agent can perform the activity if someone else or some situation allows) than the other LVCs. Moreover, at least with some limited number of post verbal arguments (e.g. look at/ride/shower), the frequency shown in COCA and COHA is increasing and recently it exceeded have LVCs. The get LVC has not drawn attention, but this study can address emergence of the get LVC as a new LVC.
Abstract

Moreover, at least with some limited number of post verbal arguments (e.g. look at/ride/shower), the frequency shown in COCA and COHA is increasing and recently it exceeded have LVCs. The get LVC has not drawn attention, but this study can address emergence of the get LVC as a new LVC.
