A data-based analysis of the effect of prefixation on the syntactic-semantic characteristics of verbs in Czech
Original language description
This paper presents a data-based case study of the interaction between word-formation and the syntactic-semantic characteristics of verbs (i.e., valency). We carry out an analysis of Czech verbs created by prefixation using a combination of language resources which contain information about the verbs’ derivational and morphemic characteristics (Slavíčková, 1975; Vidra et al., 2021) and valency characteristics (Lopatková et al., 2022; Urešová et al., 2023, 2024). The results show that the addition of a prefix causes a change to the verb’s valency characteristics in about a third of the analysed items. The most frequent changes involve a particular set of syntactic elements (namely those denoting the patient, addressee, effect, origin, and direction). The addition of the patient is the most frequent change overall, which is in accordance with previous analyses of prefixation in Slavic languages (cf. Romanova, 2006; Ramchand, 2008; Biskup, 2019). However, the data also document a significant number of de
