The development of grammatical forms and synchronic effects has captured a considerable interest researchers across the globe. research this phenomenon is done to understand how certain linguistic arise interact with other forms. Literature also discloses that number studies addressed grammaticalisation prepositions, which somehow resulted in categorial conflict. However, there dearth literatur...

Previous studies have demonstrated that verbs violating selectional constraints of their arguments elicit N400 effects in the event-related potentials (ERPs) in sentence comprehension. The present study examined brain responses to verbs violating semantic constraints specified by syntactic structures (i.e., phrasal constructions), contrasting them with those elicited by lexical-semantic violati...

This paper describes the procedure of semantic role labeling and the development of the first manually annotated Persian Proposition Bank (PerPB) which added a layer of predicate-argument information to the syntactic structures of Persian Dependency Treebank (known as PerDT). Through the process of annotating, the annotators could see the syntactic information of all the sentences and so they a...

In this paper, the authors address the significance and complexity of tokenization, the beginning step of NLP. Notions of word and token are discussed and defined from the viewpoints of lexicography and pragmatic implementation, respectively. Automatic segmentation of Chinese words is presented as an illustration of tokenization. Practical approaches to identification of compound tokens in Engl...

A verb particle construction (VPC) classification scheme gleaned from linguistic sources has been used to assess its usefulness for identifying issues in decomposability. Linguistic sources have also been used to inform the features suitable for use in building an automatic classifier for the scheme with a series of good performance results. The notions of how to define the task of computing ph...

We examine the employment of word embeddings for machine translation (MT) of phrasal verbs (PVs), a linguistic phenomenon with challenging semantics. Using word embeddings, we augment the translation model with two features: one modelling distributional semantic properties of the source and target phrase and another modelling the degree of compositionality of PVs. We also obtain paraphrases to ...
