Verbal Prefixes and Syntactic- Semantic Classification of Verbs in CROVALLEX
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we aim to describe the latest work on the syntactic-semantic classification of verbs in Croatian language. We tried to extract the specific semantics and function of verb prefixes in Croatian and capture these specific features in the Croatian verb valency lexicon CROVALLEX. The syntactic and semantic connection between base verbs and derived prefixed verbs is revealed and modelled as rules which contribute to the enrichment of the CROVALLEX lexicon. Key-Words: verbal prefixes, Croatian Verb Valency Lexicon, verb semantics, syntacto-semantic verb classification, derivational rules, Aktionsart

Semantic classification of verbs in CROVALLEX
The paper describes the implementation of the Levin’s syntactic-semantic classification of English verbs onto verbs in Croatian language. The current Croatian valence verb lexicon (CROVALLEX) containing 1739 verbs associated with 5118 valence frames was enriched with 72 broad semantic classes with two further levels of subdivision (173 classes in total). The research results show that such clas...
متن کاملLexical Semantics and Selection of TAM in Bantu Languages: A Case of Semantic Classification of Kiswahili Verbs
The existing literature on Bantu verbal semantics demonstrated that inherent semantic content of verbs pairs directly with the selection of tense, aspect and modality formatives in Bantu languages like Chasu, Lucazi, Lusamia, and Shiyeyi. Thus, the gist of this paper is the articulation of semantic classification of verbs in Kiswahili based on the selection of TAM types. This is because the sem...

متن کاملGeneration of Verbal Stems in Derivationally Rich Language
The paper presents a procedure for generating prefixed verbs in Croatian comprising combinations of one, two or three prefixes. The result of this generation process is a pool of derivationally valid prefixed verbs, although not necessarily occuring in corpora. The statistics of occurences of generated verbs in Croatian National Corpus has been calculated. Further usage of such language resourc...
