dc.description.abstractOne of the main purposes of this paper is to establish the identity of
verbal nouns (VNs): they constitute a special sub-class of nouns which
are responsible for both subcategorization and case-marking. They are
neither verbs (even though they have some verbal properties) nor do
they have the same properties as regular nouns. As for their lexical
category, they are nouns because they show the morphological and
distributional characteristics of typical nouns. They also exhibit some
syntactic properties which are not shared by regular nouns. Another
purpose here is to provide syntactic criteria to factor out VNs from the
set of potential VNs. Some verbs can function both as a heavy verb
and a light verb (LV). LVs need to be combined with VNs to become
regular predicates. We can factor out VNs from other nouns by
considering whether the noun in Question has its own complements
which can be verbally case-marked or not. This decision can be made
on the basis of the subcategorization frames and/or the thematic roles
of the verb under consideration when it functions as a heavy verb. If
there are some complements in the clause which are not attributable to
this heavy verb, they can be judged to come from some other source
with verbal properties. which proves that the noun is a VN.
