Meaning-Text-Theory and Lexical Frames
نویسندگان
چکیده
We discuss the relationship between FrameNet and Meaning-Text Theory. We propose that the notion of frame can be used in MTT in order to give the conversive lexical function both a broader and a more precise definition. We include a discussion of some issues related to importing the FrameNet lexicon to MTT.

Iranian EFL Learners’ Lexical Inferencing Strategies at Both Text and Sentence levels
Lexical inferencing is one of the most important strategies in vocabulary learning and it plays an important role in dealing with unknown words in a text. In this regard, the aim of this study was to determine the lexical inferencing strategies used by Iranian EFL learners when they encounter unknown words at both text and sentence levels. To this end, forty lower intermediate students were div...
متن کاملL2 Learners’ Lexical Inferencing: Perceptual Learning Style Preferences, Strategy Use, Density of Text, and Parts of Speech as Possible Predictors
This study was intended first to categorize the L2 learners in terms of their learning style preferences and second to investigate if their learning preferences are related to lexical inferencing. Moreover, strategies used for lexical inferencing and text related issues of text density and parts of speech were studied to determine their moderating effects and the best predictors of lexical infe...
متن کاملLexical Cohesion and Literariness in Malcolm X's " The Ballot or the Bullet"
This paper unearths the contribution of lexical cohesion to the textuality and overall meaning of Malcolm X’s speech 'The Ballot or the Bullet'. Drawing on Halliday and Hasan’s (1976) and Hoey’s (1991) theory of cohesion, specifically lexical cohesion, whose main thrust is the role of lexical items in not only contributing to meaning but also serving as cohesive ties, the paper discusses how ...
متن کاملBuilding lexical resources for PrincPar, a large coverage parser that generates principled semantic representations
Parsing, one of the more successful areas of Natural Language Processing, has mostly been concerned with syntactic structure. Though uncovering the syntactic structure of sentences is very important, in many applications a meaning representation for the input must be derived as well. We report on PrincPar, a parser that builds full meaning representations. It integrates LCFLEX, a robust parser,...
متن کاملLexicon, Ontology, and Text Meaning
A computationally relevant theory of lexical semantics must take into consideration both the form and the content of three different static knowledge sources -the lexicon, the ontological domain model and a text meaning representation language. Meanings of lexical units axe interpreted in terms of their mappings into the ontology and/or their contributions to the text meaning representation. We...
