troponym

A uses a total of forty-seven of these troponyms, whereas B uses only fifteen.

While our results support the idea that "smiles," "looks," their troponyms, and -ly adverbs are indeed important devices for audio description, (2) we must recognize that there may be other important devices that we have not accounted for.

We start by looking at -ly adverbs, at their usage with "looks" and "walks" and at troponyms for these verbs.

As noted in section 3.1, troponyms may be used as a compact way to convey action and thought simultaneously.

The antonym, hypernym, troponym, entailment of verb synset can be obtained in verb data file (data.verb).

[ESS.sub.i], the expansion sense set of [W.sub.i], should include the hypernym, troponym and entailment of each [S.sub.ij].

I will now concentrate on the set of relationships that can be established between a genus and its troponyms in terms of lexico-semantic and morphosyntactic variation.

These two calculations indicate that, given a corpus of general language use, archilexematic predicates are used more frequently than their troponyms. More importantly, the selection of the more specific predicates by the speaker or writer seems to correlate with textual factors, allowing a variationist approach to this type of onomasiological variation.

What we argue is that, given a set of OE lexemes that form a lexical subdomain, the most general predicate will tend to appear more frequently than its troponyms and its usage will be more or less regular through different textual types.
