Replication Data for: Noun incorporation in English: A typological perspective

This dataset comprises Dataset 1 and Dataset 2 that were used in the article “Noun incorporation in English: A typological perspective”, co-authored by Dana Louagie and An Van linden, and published in Functions of Language (2025). Dataset 1 contains 13 comma-separated values (csv) files, one file per N-V lexeme investigated, with each containing 100 items (or less if fewer tokens were found). The data result from a basic sorting of exhaustive samples extracted from all subcorpora of WordBanks Online. The extractions targeted three spelling variants: (i) N and V linked with a hyphen, (ii) N and V in a single graphological word, and (iii) N and V in two graphological words. Dataset 2, in turn, comprises 9 comma-separated values (csv) files containing the results of 9 semi-open searches of N-V combinations in WordBanks Online, with either N or V lexically specified.
