  1. 1/ Did you know that #ConstructionMorphology was developed by Susanne Z. Riehemann? It was her masters thesis in 1993, which was later published in a journal article in 1998. Very good work about -bar derivation in German (like able derivation in English). It is type-based, captures lexical idiosyncrasies and regularities and sub-regularities. Susanne's work was corpus-driven. Empirically and formally very good. Gert Booij never cites her appropriately.
