spelling Defining meanings by grammatical behaviour. The case of English verbs of inactionOjanguren López, Ana Elvira [0000-0001-5356-7391]This article deals with the definition of the meanings of verbs of inaction in English. The analysis is carried out within the framework of verbal classes and alternations and the theory of Role and Reference Grammar. The article applies the lexical representation of inaction verbs to the definition of meanings, a task of lexicographical work. The main conclusion of this work is that meaning definitions based on lexical representation contribute to a more systematic lexicographical practice and avoid some of the issues that arise in Lexicography meaning definition such as circularity, obscurity, single-clause-when definitions and lack of precision due to the limitations of the defining language.Este artículo trata sobre la definición de los significados de los verbos de inacción en inglés. El análisis está llevado a cabo dentro del marco de las clases verbales y las alternancias y de la teoría de la Gramática del Papel y la Referencia. En este artículo, la representación léxica de los verbos de inacción se aplica a la definición de sus significados, una tarea enmarcada dentro de la lexicografía. La conclusión principal de este trabajo es que las definiciones de significados basadas en representaciones léxicas contribuyen a lograr una práctica lexicográfica más sistemática y evitan algunos de los problemas que surgen en lexicografía a la hora de definir significados, como son la circularidad, la opacidad, las definiciones que comienzan con cuando y la falta de precisión debida a las limitaciones del leguaje de definición.Asociación Española de Lingüística Aplicada (AESLA)2018info:eu-repo/semantics/articleSubtype: Articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://investigacion.unirioja.es/documentos/5d1df65529995204f7668e7creponame:RIUR.
