Yae, Sun-hee. “Grammaticalization and Corpus-based Study of Substitutive Complex Prepositions
instead of and on behalf of.” Studies of English Language & Literature 34.4(2008): 283-300. This
paper illustrates the corpus-based analysis of substitutive complex prepositions instead of and on
behalf of from the perspective of grammaticalization. The derivative path of instead of and on
behalf of starts with location denoting nouns stead and half and they have developed into
substitutive prepositions encoding replacing of one entity X for another Y. But instead of has
undergone more complex course in the process of grammaticalization than on behalf of. Instead
of is older in age and shorter in form than on behalf of. This developmental difference between
the two prepositions is reflected in the corpus-based analysis of token frequency and collocational
pattern. The comparison of solution numbers and syntactic environments will be the evidence that
instead of is more general and less formal than on behalf of with the two prepositions
constituting layering. (Chungang University)
