VALLEX 2.0

Valency Lexicon of Czech Verbs

Markéta Lopatková, Zdeněk Žabokrtský, Václava Benešová

In order to satisfy different needs of different potential users, we distribute the lexicon in the following formats:

• Browsable version. HTML version of the data allows for an easy and fast navigation through the lexicon. Lexemes and frames are organized in several ways, following various criteria. You can start with the alphabetically sorted verbs.
  
  
• Printable version. You can print your own hard copy of VALLEX (beware: it is more than 200 pages!): vallex-2.0.pdf
  
• XML version. Mostly for programmers: you can run sophisticated queries on the data (e.g. using the XSH environment) or use the data in your applications (unless it contradicts the license agreement).
  • Document Type Definition data/xml/vallex_b.dtd
  • XML Data data/xml/vallex-2.0-b.xml

XML is the primary data format of VALLEX; both printable and browsable versions were automatically generated from the XML.

Note: The data format used during the manual annotation of VALLEX is not presented here. It is a simple plain text format based on several notation rules, which allow for deterministic conversion to XML as well as syntax highlighting in an off-the-shelf text editor.
