The present paper argues for the grammaticality in Spanish of constructions constituted by a manner of motion verb such as walk, and a directional phrase referring to the source or the goal of the motion. The aim is to examine and to explain these constructions in terms of the Generative Lexicon (within the theoretical framework of Pustejovsky 1995); that is, in sublexical terms. In other words, the legitimization and interpretation of such constructions are determined by the Qualia Structure of those words. The sub-lexical information encoded partly in the Qualia Structure of the verbs and their complements interacts within the lexicon with the Event Structure of the verb in order to generate certain aspectual specifications which determine its syntactic behavior.
