“…Pro češtinu jsou k dispozici rozsáhlé valenční slovníky, ať již tištěné (Svozilová, Prouzová a Jirsová 1997;2005), či elektronické, k nimž se řadí Vallex (Lopatková et al 2020) a VerbaLex (Hlaváčková 2008).…”

The paper presents the results of the analysis of verb valency in non-native Czech on the basis of the learner corpus MERLIN. In order to confirm the hypothesis based on previous studies on valency in non-native Czech, i.e. that non-native speakers overuse prototypical patterns and central meanings of verbs, the use of verbs and their valency frames were examined in 148 texts at CEFR levels A2, B1, and B2. The research based on 3350 occurrences of verbs leads to the conclusion that the number of valency patterns and expressed meanings indeed does not significantly increase with higher level of proficiency.

“…VerbaLex (Hlaváčková, Horák, & Kadlec, 2006) is a large lexical database of Czech verb valency frames which has been under development at NLP Centre since 2005. The organization of lexical data in VerbaLex is derived from the WordNet structure and entries follow the form of synsets.…”

Czech WordNet represents one of the first national wordnets created during the EuroWordNet and BalkaNet projects. However, the data contains various issues that affect the use of Czech WordNet in NLP applications. Since the publication of the first CzWN version, the semantic network was augmented in several phases, however, complex final editing and publishing process has not been finished. In 2017, we have started a project to evaluate and update the Czech WordNet, followed by a connection to the Collaborative Interlingual Index. In this paper, we provide an overview of Czech WordNet data updates and extensions, and present the roadmap to publish a revised version of the Czech WordNet under open license. Moreover, we introduce a developed concept for long-term updates and maintenance of the data based on crowdsourcing activities.

“…We will compare the results with the approach of [18] as embodied, e.g., in the VerbNet [24], [14], as a representative of classes of semantically and syntactically similar verbs based on monolingual resources and research on one language (English). Last, but certainly not least, we will compare the resulting classes and their properties to the VALLEx lexicon [20], [19] and VerbaLex [13] on the Czech side. Results will be analyzed from the point of view of the functional Generative Description theory [29] and its approach to valency [26], [27], [12] and the relation of form and meaning, and possibly generalized across the two languages we will work with.…”

Abstract:In this paper, we introduce our ongoing project about synonymy in bilingual context. This project aims at exploring semantic 'equivalence' of verb senses of generally different verbal lexemes in a bilingual (Czech-English) setting. Specifically, it focuses on their valency behavior within such equivalence groups. We believe that using bilingual context (translation) as an important factor in the delimitation of classes of synonymous lexical units (verbs, in our case) may help to specify the verb senses, also with regard to the (semantic) roles relation to other verb senses and roles of their arguments more precisely than when using monolingual corpora. In our project, we work "bottom-up", i.e., from an evidence as recorded in our corpora and not "top-down", from a predefined set of semantic classes.
