Abstract

Research on noun-dependent subordinate clauses is scarce. This study aims, therefore, to offer an overview of the representation of these head nouns in the grammatical tradition and to contrast it with real corpus uses (CORPES XXI), as well as to describe some of their semantic and morphological features. The analysis of said features in the head nouns that appear in fifteen reference works and those documented in CORPES XXI made it possible to determine that the traditional representation and the corpus examples differ in terms of variety, derivational characteristics, and semantic types, which implies a lack of representativeness in the selected bibliography regarding its use.
