Matching FrameNet Frames with Polish Sense Divisions: the Case of jecha¢
Matching FrameNet Frames with Polish Sense Divisions: the Case of jecha¢

Summary/Abstract: The paper presents a proposal of a novel sense division for the Polish lexeme \textit{jechać}, arising from an attempt to match the dictionary sense with an appropriate FrameNet frame. Polish lexicography proposes a single sense for all cases of humans going on land by some means of transportation, in order to contrast the verb \textit{jechać} with the verb \textit{iść} `to go on foot'. However, all factual examples of use of the verb \textit{jechać} can easilybe matched with one of three relevant frames: ``Operate\_vehicle'', ``Ride\_vehicle'' and ``Travel'', at least from the wider context. The paper shows how a parallel sense division can be established using purely linguistic, i.e. syntactic and semantic, criteria.
