The document discusses the historical development of deverbal nouns in Norwegian. It proposes three hypotheses: 1) Deverbal nouns have both verbal and nominal features, with younger nouns being more "verby" and older ones more "nouny". 2) The preposition "av" can function both as a lexical and grammatical preposition with deverbal nouns. 3) Frequency data from corpora provide evidence that deverbal nouns become increasingly nominal over time, losing verbal features like argument structure and gaining nominal features.
