The present article attempts, however, to widen this scope to other dimensions of phraseology, namely semantic preference and semantic prosody, which are more abstract and perhaps more difficult to learn than concrete co-occurring lexical items. This article introduces a case study of the Finnish degree modifier oikein (‘very’), which often occurs in deviant phraseological patterns in learner writing. The data come from the International Corpus of Learner Finnish and the Corpus of Translated Finnish. The article suggests how Finnish learner dictionaries could represent words as phraseological items. ...
