Sim, Rok & Kim, Jong-Bok. (2015). The transitive out-of V-ing construction in English: Corpus-based study. The Linguistic Association of Korea Journal 23(4), 189-210. The transitive out-of V-ing construction has bloomed in recent and current English. However, since the out-of V-ing pattern has remained rare, it has been overlooked in the literature for long. This paper is the corpus-based investigation of the construction and will shed the light on the questions which were intrigued in terms of lexical creativity including syntactic and semantic variation in the matrix verb. The paper also supports the past research on Constructional Approach to the construction with a range of corpus data and sketches a Construction Grammar analysis to account for the grammatical properties of the out-of V-ing construction. In particular, it shows that the construction inherits properties from transitive construction and caused-motion construction and shares properties with resultative construction, but is distinctive from these with respect to the entailment relationship of the gerundive phrase.
