Abstract

This paper aims to introduce a recently-developed framework for lexical semantic representation of Mandarin verbal information, using verbs of judging as an illustration. The framework (MARVS) takes each verbal sense as conveying one unique eventive structure and seeks to represent all syntactically relevant information with modular and attributive characterization. By exploring the semantic-syntactic interdependencies pertaining to verbs of judging, the study is able to identify the meaning components that are crucial for syntactic distinction and ultimately represents the semantic information in a systematic and principled way with MARVS.
