Using Noun Similarity to Adapt an Acceptability Measure for Persian Light Verb Constructions

no code implementations LREC 2012 Shiva Taslimipoor, Afsaneh Fazly, Ali Hamzeh

In particular, LVCs are formed semi-productively: often a semantically-general verb (such as take) combines with a number of semantically-similar nouns to form semantically-related LVCs, as in make a decision/choice/commitment.
