The approach we take here is not fully comparable to any of the former approaches, since we try to derive a semantic classification BV-PP pairs in an unsupervised manner and we only use syntactic features, stemming from corpus instances of both the BVs and the PVs.
we do not attempt to classify PVs, but we try to classify syntactic transfers and, by doing so, we identify syntactic transfer patterns which we hypothesize to have a close relation to semantic PV classes and the semantics of the particles.
