Attempts to apply the scheme to adpositions and case markers in other languages, as well as some problematic cases in English, have led us to reconsider the assumption that an adposition's lexical contribution is equivalent to the role/relation that it mediates. Our proposal is to embrace the potential for construal in adposition use, expressing such phenomena directly at the token level to manage complexity and avoid sense proliferation. We suggest a framework to represent both the scene role and the adposition's lexical function so they can be annotated at scale-supporting automatic, statistical processing of domaingeneral language-and discuss how this representation would allow for a simpler inventory of labels.", |

| "text": "As lexical classes go, prepositions are something of a red-headed stepchild in the linguistics literature. Most of the semantics literature on prepositions has revolved around how they categorize space and time (e.g., Herskovits, 1986; Verkuyl and Zwarts, 1992; Bowerman and Choi, 2001 ). However, there have been a couple of lines of work addressing preposition semantics broadly. In cognitive linguistics, studies have examined abstract as well as concrete uses of English prepositions (e.g., Dirven, 1993; Lindstromberg, 2010) . Notably, the polysemy of over and other prepositions has been explained in terms of sense networks encompassing core senses and motivated extensions (Brugman, 1981; Lakoff, 1987; Dewell, 1994; Evans, 2001, 2003) . The Preposition Project (TPP; Litkowski and Hargraves, 2005) broke ground in stimulating computational work on fine-grained word sense disambiguation of English prepositions (Litkowski and Hargraves, 2005; Ye and Baldwin, 2007; Tratz and Hovy, 2009; Dahlmeier et al., 2009) . Typologists, meanwhile, have developed semantic maps of functions, where the nearness of two functions reflects their tendency to fall under the same adposition or case marker in many languages (Haspelmath, 2003; W\u00e4lchli, 2010) .", |

Pilot annotation in these languages has echoed the fundamental problem discussed in the previous section. Consider the Hindi examples below. In (4a), the experiencer of an emotion is marked with a postposition kaa, the genitive case marker in Hindi. 4 The use of kaa strongly suggests possession (in (4), possession of an abstract quality). However, the semantics of the phrase also includes EXPE-RIENCER-thus, it seems inappropriate to force a choice between EXPERIENCER and POSSESSOR for this token.

These seem to be symptoms of the fact that no English preposition prototypically marks EXPERIENCER or STIMULUS roles, though from the perspective of the predicates, such roles are thought to be important generalizations in characterizing events of perception and emotion. In essence, there is an apparent mismatch between the roles that the verb care or the noun anger calls for, and the functions that English prepositions prototypically code for. While about prototypically codes for TOPIC and of prototypically codes for POSSESSOR, there is no preposition that \"naturally\" codes for EXPERIENCER or STIMULUS in the same way. Thus, if a predicate marks an EXPERIENCER or STIMULUS with a preposition, the preposition will contribute something new to the conceptualization of the scene being described. With \"cared about the strategy,\" it is TOPIC-ness that the preposition brings to the table; with \"anger of Bipasha,\" it is the conceptualization of anger as an attribute that somebody possesses. Thus, we turn to theories in Cognitive Semantics to define the phenomenon of construal as a means of understanding the contributions that are emerging from the adpositions with respect to the expressed event or situation. Then, we propose a method to handle the problem posed by construal and to resolve the apparent semantic overlap which is pervasive across languages.", |

In other words, these paraphrases are not identical in meaning because the preposition carries with it different nuances of construal.

The use of -ul evokes a special construal: it indicates that the schoolyard is more than just a backdrop of the running act and that it is a location that Cheolsu mindfully chose as the place of action. Additionally, marking the location with the accusative marker, pragmatically, brings focus to the noun (i.e., he ran in a schoolyard as opposed to anywhere else). Such construals are not limited to locations, but may also include other scene roles such as GOAL and ACCOMPANIER, in alternation with postpositions that can express those functions. Since accusative case markers generally serve syntactic functions over semantic ones, it may be difficult to identify a semantic function the accusative marker carries. A similar phenomenon can be found in Hindi: While the scene role in (15a) and (15b) is clearly STIMULUS, the function is less clear.

First, if the PP is not governed by a predicate which provides the rolessuch as a verb or eventive/relational noun-the preposition may need to evoke a meaning more specific than our labels. E.g., for \"children in pajamas\" and \"woman in black,\" in may be taken to evoke the semantics of wearing clothing. 10 The label set we use for broad-coverage annotation is, of course, vaguer, and would simply specify ATTRIBUTE for the clothing sense of in. Copular constructions raise similar issues. Consider \"It is up to you to decide,\" meaning that deciding is the addressee's responsibility: this idiomatic sense of up to is closer to a semantic predicate than to a semantic role or figureground relation.", |

(A hypothesis is that PARTICI-PANT subtypes tend to be limited to scene roles, but this needs to be examined empirically.) Which rolefunction pairs are attested in particular languages, and are any universal? Thus far we have seen that certain scene roles, such as EXPERIENCER, STIM-ULUS, and PROFESSIONALASPECT, invite many different adposition construals-is this universally true?

In an attempt to tease apart the semantics contributed specifically by the adposition from the semantics coming from elsewhere, we proposed a construal analysis.
