− | In the UNLarium framework, '''Subcategorization Frames''' are the number and types of syntactic arguments that co-occurs with the lemma in a sentence.
| + | #REDIRECT [[Subcategorization frames]] |
− | | + | |
− | == When to use subcategorization frames ==
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Subcategorization frames are mandatory for words that take one or more syntactic argument, such as:
| + | |
− | * intransitive verbs ('sleep', 'rain')
| + | |
− | * direct transitive verbs ('kill', 'kiss')
| + | |
− | * indirect transitive verbs ('depend', 'rely')
| + | |
− | * ditransitive verbs ('give')
| + | |
− | * deverbals ('arrival', 'construction')
| + | |
− | * adjectives that require a complement ('loyal to', 'interested in')
| + | |
− | * adverbs that require a complement ('contrarily to')
| + | |
− | * prepositions ('in', 'after', 'near', 'instead')
| + | |
− | * conjunctions ('because', 'and', 'but')
| + | |
− | * proper nouns that require an article ('The United States of America")
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Subcategorization frames are optional for words that take no syntactic argument, such as:
| + | |
− | * nouns ('table', 'computer')
| + | |
− | * adjectives ('beautiful', 'intelligent')
| + | |
− | * adverbs ('yesterday', 'here')
| + | |
− | * determiners ('the', 'this')
| + | |
− | * pronouns ('he', 'yours')
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | == Syntax ==
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Subcategorization frames should comply with the '''[[S-Rule]]''' formalism for writing syntactic rules in the UNL framework.

− | == Observations ==
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | '''Syntactic case marking''' can be associated to the arguments of syntactic relations, if necessary.
| + | |
− | *VS(NP),VC(NP); (the verb has a specifier (NP) and a complement (NP), i.e., is a direct transitive verb (without syntactic case marking)
| + | |
− | *VS(NP,NOM),VC(NP,ACC); (the verb has a specifier (NP) that receives the nominative (NOM) case and a complement (NP) that receives the accusative (ACC) case
| + | |
− | Syntactic case marking should be avoided if default (i.e., if already expressed in the language settings)
| + | |
− | *If the specifier of the verb always receives a nominative case, this information should be stated in the [[language settings]] and not in individual subcategorization frames
| + | |
− | **Subcategorization frame: VS(NP); (the specifier of the verb is a noun phrase)
| + | |
− | **Language settings: VS(NP):=VS(NP,NOM); (every NP specifier of the verb receives the nominative (NOM) case)
| + | |
− | '''Agreement''' information can be associated to the arguments of syntactic relations, if necessary.
| + | |
− | *VS(NP); (the specifier of the verb is a noun phrase and there is no information on agreement
| + | |
− | *VS(NP,ANUM,APER); (the specifier of the verb is a noun phrase (NP) that assigns number (ANUM) and person (APER) to its head);
| + | |
− | Agreement information should be avoided if default (i.e., if already expressed in the language settings)
| + | |
− | *If the specifier of the verb always assigns number and person to its head, this information should be stated in the [[language settings]] and not in individual subcategorization frames
| + | |
− | **Subcategorization frame: VS(NP); (the specifier of the verb is a noun phrase)
| + | |
− | **Language settings: VS(NP):=VS(NP,ANUM,APER); (every NP specifier of the verb assigns number and person to its head)
| + | |
− | '''Word ordering''' information can be associated to the arguments of syntactic relations, if necessary.
| + | |
− | *VS(NP); (the specifier of the verb is a noun phrase and there is no information on the word ordering
| + | |
− | *VS(<NP); (the specifier of the verb is a noun phrase (NP) that comes at the left of the head;
| + | |
− | Word ordering information should be avoided if default (i.e., if already expressed in the language settings)
| + | |
− | *If the specifier of the verb always comes at the left of its head, this information should be stated in the [[language settings]] and not in individual subcategorization frames
| + | |
− | **Subcategorization frame: VS(NP); (the specifier of the verb is a noun phrase)

− | **Language settings: VS(NP):=VS(<NP); (every NP specifier of the verb comes at the left of its head)
