Publication at Faculty of Mathematics and Physics |

Abstract

In this paper we have described the dissimilarities in Czech and Russian Valency based on the material of the Czech lexicon Vallex. Our main hypothesis is that the differences in valency structure might be explained by the semantics of verbs , so we have exploited the classification of the semantic classes provided by Vallex.

In almost in each verb class we have found some regular dissimilarity that is typical of this class.
