The main product is the Russian Constructicon, which with over one thousand constructions (and more being continuously added), is arguably the largest openly available constructicon resource for any language. The Russian Constructicon is a free and open internet resource for both learners and researchers of Russian.<\/p>\n<p>Certain kinds of constructions are represented in dictionaries and other reference works, but many types of constructions are not. This is not due to any shortcomings in such reference works, but due to the fact that their mission is fundamentally different: they are not designed to deliver a full-scale inventory of the constructions that are useful for second-language learners. the Russian Constructicon project is focused on those \u201cmissing\u201d constructions, particularly the constructions that are most essential for learners of Russian.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Link to the project page or project result: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/constructicon.github.io\/russian\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/constructicon.github.io\/russian\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@russianconstructicon7328\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@russianconstructicon7328\u00a0<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Project duration:<\/strong>\u00a02016 \u2013 2021\/2022<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other collaborators:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Anna Endresen<\/strong> (UiT The Arctic University of Norway)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Radovan Bast<\/strong>\u00a0(UiT The Arctic University of Norway)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Valentina Zhukova<\/strong> (UiT The Arctic University of Norway)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ekaterina Rakhilina<\/strong> (Higher School of Economics in Moscow)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Olga Lyashevskaya<\/strong> (Higher School of Economics in Moscow)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Daria Mordashova<\/strong> (Lomonosov Moscow State University \/ Institute of Linguistics RAS)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Francis M.
