Abstract

This paper focuses on Chinese non-canonical VN collocations from the NLP perspective. It first makes a classification of the Chinese non-canonical VN collocations, and then talks about their semantic features. This paper argues that, machine recognition of Chinese non-canonical collocations should not only consider the semantic roles of the objects, but also the verbs. Idioms and chunks should be put into the lexicon directly. A flow chart for the machine recognition is offered at the end of this paper.
