Example

  • After a list of verb phrases was produced from the BNC it was pared down to a more manageable size. (Coyne, Klapheke, Rouhizadeh, Sproat & Bauer, 2012)
  • Finally the resulting verb phrase is combined with its subject resulting in a declarative sentence (S[dcl]). (Zhang & Clark, 2011)
  • In (2) "spoken out" is negated which means that the verb phrase does not bear an opinion but our system failed to recognize the negation. (Choi, Cardie, Riloff & Patwardhan, 2005)
  • In SVO languages such as English for example the main verb phrase usually comes after the first noun phrase-the main subject-in a sentence while in verb-final languages such as Japanese or German it comes very last. (Grissom II, Orita & Boyd-Graber, 2016)
  • The full verb phrases are entered as lexical units in our verb phrase lists and given the same types of features as normal one-word verbs. (Stachowitz, 1973)
