This collection of articles sketches the complexity of the subject of lexical-semantic relations and addresses semantic, lexicographic and computational issues on an array of meaning relations in different languages. It brings together a variety of linguistic studies on the contextualised construction of synonymy and antonymy in discourse. It shows that research on language and cognition calls for empirical evidence from different sources. This volume demonstrates how the internet, corpus data, as well as psycholinguistic methods contribute profitably to gain insights into the nature of the paradigmatics in actual language use. Furthermore, the volume is concerned with practical and application-oriented research on lexical databases, and it includes explorations of sense-related items in dictionaries from both a text-technological and lexicographic perspective.

This paper provides a general overview of the treatment of lexico-semantic relations in different fields of research including theoretical and application-oriented disciplines. At the same time, it sketches the development of the descriptions and explanations of sense relations in various approaches as well as some methodologies which have been used to retrieve and analyse paradigmatic patterns.

Swedish opposites
A multi-method approach to ‘goodness of antonymy’

This is an investigation of ‘goodness of antonym pairings’ in Swedish, which seeks answers to why speakers judge antonyms such as bra-dålig ‘good-bad’ and lång-kort ‘long-short’ to be better antonyms than, say, dunkel-tydlig ‘obscure-clear’ and rask-långsam ‘speedy-slow’. The investigation has two main aims. The first aim is to provide a description of goodness of Swedish antonym pairings based on three different observational techniques: a corpus-driven study, a judgement experiment and an elicitation experiment. The second aim is to evaluate both converging and diverging results on those three indicators and to discuss them in the light of what the results tell us about antonyms in Swedish, and perhaps more importantly, what they tell us about the nature of antonymy in language and thought more generally.

Using web data to explore lexico-semantic relations

This paper reports on web-as-corpus research that seeks to explain why some semantically opposed word pairs have special status as canonical antonyms (for example: cold-hot), while other pairs do not (icy-scorching, cold-fiery, freezing-hot, etc.). In particular, it reports on the findings of Jones, Paradis, Murphy and Willners (2007), and extends their retrieval procedure to include the previously overlooked ‘ancillary’ function of antonymy (Jones 2002). The primary assumptions are that a language’s most canonical ‘opposites’ can be reasonably expected to co-occur with highest fidelity in those constructions associated most closely with the key discourse functions of antonymy, and that, given their low frequency in language, an extremely large corpus is needed in order to identify such patterns of co-occurrence.

Conventional descriptions of synonymous items often concentrate on common semantic traits and the degree of semantic overlap they exhibit. Their aim is to offer classifications of synonymy rather than elucidating ways of establishing contextual meaning equivalence and the cognitive prerequisites for this. Generally, they lack explanations as to how synonymy is construed in actual language use. This paper investigates principles and cognitive devices of synonymy construction as they appear in corpus data, and focuses on questions of how meaning equivalence might be conceptualised by speakers.

Antonymy relations
Typical and atypical cases from the domain of speech act verbs

Antonymy is a relation of lexical opposition which is generally considered to involve (i) the presence of a scale along which a particular property may be graded, and hence both (ii) gradability of the corresponding lexical items and (iii) typical entailment relations. Like other types of lexical opposites, antonyms typically differ only minimally: while denoting opposing poles on the relevant dimension of difference, they are similar with respect to other components of meaning. This paper presents examples of antonymy from the domain of speech act verbs which either lack some of these typical attributes or show problems in the application of these. It discusses several different proposals for the classification of these atypical examples.

Taking a usage-based perspective, lexical-semantic relations and other aspects of lexical meaning are characterised as emerging from language use. At the same time, they shape language use and therefore become manifest in corpus data. This paper discusses how this mutual influence can be taken into account in the study of these relations. An empirically driven methodology is proposed that is, as an initial step, based on self-organising clustering of comprehensive collocation profiles. Several examples demonstrate how this methodology may guide linguists in explicating our implicit knowledge of complex semantic structures. Although these example analyses are conducted for written German, the overall methodology is language-independent.

Consistency of reference structures is an important issue in lexicography and dictionary research, especially with respect to information on sense-related items. In this paper, the systematic challenges of this area (e.g. ‘non-reversed reference’, bidirectional linking being realised as unidirectional structures) will be outlined, and the problems which can be caused by these challenges for both lexicographers and dictionary users will be discussed. The paper also discusses how text-technological solutions may help to provide support for the consistency of sense-related pairings during the process of compiling a dictionary.

GermaNet is a lexical resource constructed in the style of the Princeton WordNet. Lexical units are grouped in synsets which represent the lexical instantiations of concepts. Relations connect both these synsets and the lexical units. In this paper, we will describe the kinds of relations which have been established in GermaNet as well as the theoretical motivation for their use.
