초록
This paper examines the semantic categories of verb collocates of the prepositions around and about and considers the semantic relationship between those prepositions and their verb collocates. The study describes how to apply a systematic semantic tagging by the semantic category analysis program, Wmatrix, to the analysis of semantic characteristics of verb collocation with each preposition and how the results are reflected in explaining the semantic correlation between verb collocates and the two prepositions. The result of the analysis suggests that the semantic category of actual verb collocates of each preposition classified through Wmatrix supports the traditional cognitive semantic interpretation well, and the verb collocation information shows a very close correlation with the semantic information of the preposition.
Abstract
This paper examines the semantic categories of verb collocates of the prepositions around and about and considers the semantic relationship between those prepositions and their verb collocates. The study describes how to apply a systematic semantic tagging by the semantic category analysis program, Wmatrix, to the analysis of semantic characteristics of verb collocation with each preposition and how the results are reflected in explaining the semantic correlation between verb collocates and the two prepositions. The result of the analysis suggests that the semantic category of actual verb collocates of each preposition classified through Wmatrix supports the traditional cognitive semantic interpretation well, and the verb collocation information shows a very close correlation with the semantic information of the preposition.
