Abstract

This paper aims at a lexical description of frequent, but not enough cognitively salient uses of frequent lexical verbs in Swedish on the background of Czech, with some implications for the lexical description of basic verbs in general. It results in a draft of a production lexicon of Swedish basic verbs for advanced Czech learners of Swedish, with focus on their uses as light verbs.
