<p>This study addresses the French morphological construction [VN/A/Adv/P]<sub>N/A</sub>.

The theoretical framework is lexeme-based morphology, which adheres to weak lexicalism.</p><p>The first part of our analysis is qualitative and concerns the availability aspect of productivity. The method is introspective. The internal semantic patterns of the French construction are examined. Our results give evidence for the claim that a single morphological construction rule, [VN/A/Adv/P]<sub>N/A</sub>, is responsible for the cases where the first constituent is a verb stem, and the second constituent may correspond to an internal argument, an external argument or a semantic adjunct. All cases manifest the same patterns, which are related to the denotative meanings included in the agent polysemy: Agent, Instrument, Locative, Action, Result and Cause. Our contrastive analysis shows that the same patterns are found in the four Swedish agentive formations, [N/A/Adv/PV-are]<sub>N</sub>, [N/A/Adv/PV]<sub>N</sub>, [N/A/Adv/PV-a]<sub>N</sub> and [VN]<sub>N</sub>, which correspond to the French [VN/A/Adv/P]<sub>N/A</sub> construction and which also contain a verbal constituent and its internal or external argument, or an adjunct.</p><p>The second part of our analysis is quantitative and concerns the profitability aspect of productivity.

Four French agentive formations, [VN/A/Adv/P]<sub>N/A</sub> compounds and V-<i>ant</i>, V-<i>eur</i> and V-<i>oir</i>(<i>e</i>) derivations, are included in order to examine semantic competition and blocking effects.
