Seminář prohloubí znalosti studentů o valenci sloves, ale seznámí je i s problematikou valence substantiv, adjektiv a adverbií. Studenti se seznámí s nástroji a zdroji pro studium valence (valenční slovníky, specializované databáze, syntakticky anotované korpusy), s různými teoretickými přístupy k valenci a se základními poznatky o empirickém výzkumu valence (včetně výzkumu v psycholingvistice, osvojování jazyka a neurolingvistice). Pozornost bude věnována i vybraným dílčím problémům, např. alternacím valenčních rámců, interakci valence a slovotvorby apod. Důležitou součástí semináře budou i praktické aktivity orientované na práci s daty.

The course will extend the student’s knowledge of the valency of verbs, but will also deal with the valency of nouns, adjectives and adverbs. It introduces the tools and resources useful for studying valency (valency dictionaries, specialized databases, and syntactically annotated corpora), and it contrasts various theoretical approaches to valency (or argument structure) and discusses the results of various empirical studies of valency (including psycho- and neurolinguistic studies as well as studies of language acquisition). Various specific issues will be addressed, including valency alternations and the interaction of valency and morphology. The course will also include practical activities and exercised based mainly on corpus data.
