    <abstract>Fixed multiword expressions are common in many, if not all, natural languages. In the Universal Dependencies framework, UD, a subset of these expressions are modelled with the dependency relation ‘fixed’ targeting the most grammaticalized cases of functional multiword items. In this paper we perform a detailed analysis of 439 expressions modelled with ‘fixed’ in two Swedish UD treebanks in order to reduce their numbers and fit the definition better. We identify a large number of dimensions of variation for fixed multiword expressions that can be used for the purpose. We also point out several problematic aspects of the current UD approach to multiword expressions and discuss different alternative solutions for modelling fixed expresions. We suggest that insights from Constructional Grammar (CxG) can help with a more systematic treatment of fixed expressions in UD.</abstract>
