Abstract

This research is a corpus-based analysis of Brazilian Portuguese prepositional phrases that have a frozen status. Based on a previous list, elaborated for parser PALAVRAS (Bick, 2000), we examine the PPs frozen syntactic behavior and propose three different PPs syntactic-semantic sets, which are true assets for lexicographic purpose and NLP lexical resource.
