Sažetak

Applying the perspective of Construction Grammar and the corpus-based methodology termed Distinctive-Collexeme Analysis, this study aims to ascertain adverbial complements (ACs) that show a marked preference for either the AC-rzecz biorąc-construction ‘AC- thing taking-construction’ (e.g. historycznie rzecz biorąc ‘historically speaking’; verbatim: ‘historically thing taking’) or the AC-mówiąc-construction ‘AC-speaking-construction’ (e.g. ogólnie mówiąc ‘generally speaking’) in the Polish language. Drawing upon data retrieved from The National Corpus of Polish (NKJP), the findings reveal that these constructions display a strong tendency to co-occur with particular ACs that convey a range of meanings and serve different functions in discourse. In addition, the study reports that both constructions are predominantly observed in journalism, are used commonly in quasi-spoken texts, occur frequently in literature, and are relatively rare in Internet sources, scientific-didactic texts, and conversational contexts.
