Assessing agreement on classification tasks: the kappa statistic
Computational Linguistics
| Hi-index | 0.00 |
Path and manner of movement are generally taken to be the core distinguishing features in descriptions of motion events. It is proposed here that this two-dimensional characterization of the lexical semantics of motion verbs needs to be reconsidered. We introduce a new research method, the cross-linguistic dictionary-lookup analysis, by means of which additional meaning dimensions can be identified for motion verbs in Dutch, English and German.
