VPCs combine a base verb (e.g., <em>werken<\/em> \u2018work\u2019) with a preverbal element (e.g., <em>uit<\/em> \u2018out\u2019), and, while well-studied in Dutch, their translation has received less attention. Building on Cappelle and Loock (2017), this study explores whether cross-linguistic differences between Germanic and Romance languages influence VPC use in Dutch translations. Since VPCs are more typical in Germanic than in Romance languages, a \u2018shining through\u2019 effect is expected. The analysis focuses on VPCs with <em>op<\/em>, <em>af<\/em>, and <em>uit<\/em>, using 100 parallel concordances per language per VPC from the OpenSubtitles corpus (Tiedemann 2011). Results show that VPCs occur more often in Dutch translations from English than from French \u2013 supporting previous findings and underscoring the importance of contrastive analysis in translation studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>DOI<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.61430\/MZXA9993\">https:\/\/doi.org\/10.61430\/MZXA9993<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-small-font-size has-custom-font-size wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.uclouvain.be\/bkl-cbl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Papers-LSB_hendrickx_2025.pdf\" style=\"border-radius:13px;font-style:normal;font-weight:500\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">View full-text<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>JournalPapers of the Linguistic Society of Belgium, vol. 19 (2025) Author(s)Isa Hendrickx AbstractThis paper presents a pilot study on verb-particle constructions (VPCs) in translated Dutch. &hellip; <a title=\"Verb-particle constructions in translated Dutch: A pilot study\" class=\"bnm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.uclouvain.be\/bkl-cbl\/en\/journals\/papers-of-the-lsb\/volume-19-2025\/hendrickx\/\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Verb-particle constructions in translated Dutch: A pilot study<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":123,"featured_media":0,"parent":53383,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-53393","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry","bnm-entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.uclouvain.be\/bkl-cbl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/53393","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.uclouvain.be\/bkl-cbl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.uclouvain.be\/bkl-cbl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.uclouvain.be\/bkl-cbl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/123"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.uclouvain.be\/bkl-cbl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=53393"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/sites.uclouvain.be\/bkl-cbl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/53393\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":53463,"href":"https:\/\/sites.uclouvain.be\/bkl-cbl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/53393\/revisions\/53463"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.uclouvain.be\/bkl-cbl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/53383"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.uclouvain.be\/bkl-cbl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=53393"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
