Editorial
Welcome to the Yearbook of Phraseology
KOENRAAD KUIPER
WelcometotheYearbookofPhraseology,or,astheindigenouspeopleoftheislands
ofNewZealandwouldsayformulaically,‘Haeremai,Haeremae,Haeremai’.
WhyshouldwewelcomethisYearbook?Whyindeedshould itseethelight
of day at all? The world is full of academic periodicals dealing with exotica
of thousands of kinds. High aims were set for theYearbook when it was pro-
posed to the publishers. We said, “TheYoP will be the pre-eminent periodi-
cal publication in phraseology with a high reputation among scholars in the
field. It will publish only articles which makea significant contribution to the
field.ItwillfacilitatedialoguebetweenContinentalandEnglish-speakingschol-
arsinthefieldofphraseologyandbuild acomprehensiveunderstanding ofthe
manyfacetsofphraseologyandthusestablishthefieldontheglobalscale.”On
the one hand, these arehigh-sounding words and easily said. But on the other
hand, thereis noperiodical publishing onall areasofphraseology exclusively.
Infact, thefieldofphraseology is remarkablylittle known outside ofnorthern
Europe.Whileitexistsatthecrossroadsofanumberofdisciplinesitiscertainly
as central to linguistics as morphology and lexical semantics which deal with
thepropertiesofonewordlexicalitems.
How does the Yearbook conceive of phraseology. In the proposal to the
publisherwesaid,“Phra seologyisthestudyofthephrasallexiconofbothnative
speakersandlanguages,andthestudyoftheusageofphrasallexemes.Phrasal
lexemes are distinguished from other lexemes by having syntactic structure
ratherthanwordstructure.Aslexemes,theycanbestudiedforboththeirformal
propertiesandtheirusageproperties.
The study of the phrasal lexicon of speakers is manifested in studies of
thepsycholinguistics ofsuchitemsincluding theiracquisition, production and
perception.Wherestudyisrelatedtothephrasallexiconofalanguageitsupports
areas such as the lexicography of idioms and restricted collocations, proverb
studiesandcorpuslinguisticinvestigations.Theusageofphrasallexemesleads,
forexample,tostudies informulaicvarietiesofspeechandstylistics.”

So theYearbook has set out on an ambitious journey. In doing so it has
neededfriends.Thesolescholarly societydealing with phraseology, theEuro-
peanSocietyofPhraseologyhasbeenitssponsorandwithouttheactivesupport
of the managementcommittee and advisory board as well as the membership
oftheSocietythisvolumewouldnotbeinfrontofyou.Thepublishers,Mouton
deGruyter,werepreparedtoaccepttheSociety’sproposalandhavebeenmost
supportive. Membersofthe Editorial Boardhave beenpreparedtoreviewand
have done so promptly and carefully. Inthis first issue it is important to thank
allthesepeople.
However, the production of aYearbook of phraseology is only a half way
point.IftheworkrepresentedintheYearbook nowandinthefutureistomake
asignificant contribution tothe discipline ofphraseology andits relateddisci-
plinesitmustalsobereadanddisseminated.Howsuccessfulthatsecondphase
