Can Complex Valency Frames be Universal?

This paper deals with the comprehensive lexicon of Czech verbs named VerbaLex. It contains complex valency verb frames (CVFs) including both surface and deep valencies. The most notable features of CVFs include two-level semantic labels with linkage to the Princeton and EuroWordNet Top Ontology hierarchy and the corresponding surface verb frame patterns capturing the morphological cases that ar...

Downward-directed transitive frames with universal relations

In this paper we identify modal logics of some bimodal Kripke frames corresponding to geometrical structures. Each of these frames is a set of ‘geometrical’ objects with some natural accessibility relation plus the universal relation. For these logics we present finite axiom systems and prove completeness. We also show that all these logics have the finite model property and are PSPACE-complete...

A universal cue for grammatical categories in the input to children: Frequent frames

How does a child map words to grammatical categories when words are not overtly marked either lexically or prosodically? Recent language acquisition theories have proposed that distributional information encoded in sequences of words or morphemes might play a central role in forming grammatical classes. To test this proposal, we analyze child-directed speech from seven typologically diverse lan...
