Abstract
In this paper, we provide a well-founded description of Czech deverbal nouns in both nominal and verbal structures (light verb constructions), based on a complex interaction between the lexicon and the grammar. We show that light verb constructions result from a regular syntactic operation.
We introduce two interlinked valency lexicons, NomVallex and VALLEX , demonstrating how to minimize the size of lexicon entries while allowing for the generation of well-formed nominal and verbal structures of deverbal nouns.
