SYNTACTIC RELATIONS VERSUS SEMANTIC ROLES WITHIN RELATIONAL FRAMEWORK
Syntactic Relations versus Semantic Roles within Relational Framework

Summary/Abstract: The paper is structured into two parts: the first part discusses the syntactic relations in sentence, while the second part presents the most important types of semantic roles, pointing out that the number of these semantic roles is much larger than the one of syntactic roles. We analyse the most important levels of generality with respect to semantic roles, namely verb-specific semantic roles, thematic relations and grammatical relations, paying attention to the overlapping of these levels.
