“…This data set is based on the syntactic classes of verbs collected by the Lexicon-Grammar Theory (LG). LG, which is deeply connected to the Operators-Arguments theory, determines the structure of a large number of verbs (Gross 1975) that were classified on the basis of their shared syntactic features. Since there are only specific LG tables of English verbs (mainly phrasal verbs), we relied on the Italian classification (Elia 1984;Vietri 2004) from which we selected two classes of verbs with restricted arguments: class 2B and class 20R.…”

Distributional Semantics (DS) models are based on the idea that two words which appear in similar contexts, i.e. similar neighborhoods, have similar meanings. This concept was originally presented by Harris in his Distributional Hypothesis (DH) (Harris 1954). Even though DH forms the basis of the majority of DS models, Harris states in later works that only syntactic analysis can allow for a more precise formulation of the neighborhoods involved: the arguments and the operators.In this work, we present a DS model based on the concept of Syntactic Distance inspired by a study of Harris's theories concerning the syntactic-semantic interface. In our model, the context of each word is derived from its dependency network generated by a parser. With this strategy, the co-occurring terms of a target word are calculated on the basis of their syntactic relations, which are also preserved in the event of syntactical transformations. The model, named Syntactic Distance as Word Window (SD-W2), has been tested on three state-of-the-art tasks: Semantic Distance, Synonymy and Single Word Priming, and compared with other classical DS models. In addition, the model has been subjected to a new test based on Operator-Argument selection. Although the results obtained by SD-W2 do not always reach those of modern contextualized models, they are often above average and, in many cases, they are comparable with the result of GLOVE or BERT.

“…As for the status of our ingressive constructions, several views exist in the literature. Some researchers (Imbs 1960, Martin 1971, Wagner and Pinchon 1973, relate aspectual periphrases to lexical aspect, while others (Gross 1975, Gaatone 1995, Barceló and Bres 2006, relate them to grammatical aspect. For still others (Lamiroy 1999;Laca 2004Laca , 2005Gosselin 2010aGosselin , b, 2011Gosselin , 2020, some (Croft 2012: 106) constructions relate to lexical aspect and others to grammatical aspect.…”

This article compares the usage of commencer à ‘to begin’+Vinf. and se mettre à ‘to start’ + Vinf. in modern French. Using a corpus sample of 2000 observations, we examined the effect of Adverbial complementation, of Event type (aspect), and of Tense. Based on a mixed-effects logistic regression analysis, we found evidence for Event type, where se mettre à is associated with activities, and Tense, where se mettre à seems to be associated with passé simple, futur proche and subjonctif present. On the other hand, commencer à is associated with plus-que-parfait and indicatif imparfait. We discuss the results in the frame-semantic model of Croft (2012). We make the case that commencer à can have the profile of an achievement or that of an accomplishment, while se mettre à manifests only one profile, that of an achievement. Our results support a one-component approach to aspect in which the result of the interaction between grammatical aspect and lexical aspect can be attributed to the same aspectual contour.
