Project type: VEGA

Project duration: 1/2024–12/2027

Project leader: Dr. Daniela Majchráková

Other members: Dr. Agáta Karčová, Dr. Katarína Piatková, Kristína Bobeková, Katarína Chlpíková, Dr. Ján Mášik

Annotation: The essence of the project is to contribute to the expansion of knowledge about the collocability of adverbs in the Slovak language, both by an in-depth corpus-linguistic analysis of these linguistic units and by creating a dictionary of adverb collocations based on data from the Slovak National Corpus. In the first phase of the project, a specialised corpus will be made, which will be used for the creation of statistical lists, a basic list of entries, as well as for the extraction of collocations of selected adverbs. The dictionary will include more than 700 collocational profiles of the most frequent adverbs of the Slovak language and a statistical part, which will consist of various frequency lists related to the collocability of selected adverbs. In the final phase of the project, the dictionary will be submitted for printing.
