Using the Constructionist Approach when Building a Multilingual Valency Lexicon
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper presents a preliminary research in the area of verbal valency and argument structure theory. With the perspective of building a multilingual archive of valency characteristics of verbs, the question is raised whether the structure of such a linguistic resource should be straight and simple, or to some extent hierarchical and capturing more relation types, including those among individual frames within a single language.

Valency refers to the capacity of verb (or a word belonging to another part of speech) to take a specific number and type of syntactically dependent language units. Valency information is thus related to particular lexemes and as such it is necessary to describe valency characteristics for separate lexemes in the form of lexicon entries. A valency lexicon is indispensable for any complex Natura...
