CzEngVallex

A comparison of Czech and English verbal valency based on corpus material (theory and practice)

The aim of the project is a cross-linguistic comparison of valency behavior of Czech and English verbs. Not only theoretical comparative studies particularly focused on differences in Czech and English verbal valency structure, but also hands-on experience of work with corpus data are expected. The theoretical aspects include both a description of verbal valency in both languages and a description of interlinking of translational verbal equivalents with drawing a follow-up comparison between the achieved results.
