Encoding and semantic properties of stimulus in Russian: verbs of anger and beyond

The paper examines the encoding and semantic properties of the stimulus participant for a group of Russian experiencer-subject verbs of anger ( serdit’sja ‘be angry’, negodovat’ ‘be indignant’, etc.). The previous studies on experiential predicates have primarily been focused on the experiencer, whi...

Shrnutí:The paper examines the encoding and semantic properties of the stimulus participant for a group of Russian experiencer-subject verbs of anger ( serdit’sja ‘be angry’, negodovat’ ‘be indignant’, etc.). The previous studies on experiential predicates have primarily been focused on the experiencer, while the stimulus received less attention. The present corpus-based study shows that Russian experiencer-subject verbs of emotion vary as regards the typical semantic properties of their stimuli (such as animacy and affinity to more abstract semantic roles of source vs. goal). These semantic properties of the stimulus determine, to a large extent, the choice of the same syntactic encoding—that of the preposition na with the accusative—for the verbs of anger and for Russian verbs of other semantic groups outside experiential predicates, namely various speech-act verbs.
