Sintaktičko-semantička podjela psiholoških glagola u hrvatskome jeziku

The paper proposes a syntacticosemantic classification of Croatian psychological verbs based on 57 verbs contained in Valencijski rječnik psiholoških glagola u hrvatskome jeziku (Valency dictionary of psychological verbs in the Croatian language), i. e. in its online version e-Glava. The verbs are distributed into three major groups based on their transitivity. Further subgroups are established on the linking of experiencer with a certain syntactic position, i. e. with the function of a subject, direct object and indirect object (which syntactic function realizes a thematic role of experiencer). The morphological form of experiencers and non-experiencer arguments are analyzed in detail for each subgroup of psychological verbs. The most numerous subgroup among 57 psychological verbs is the group, which has both reflexive and transitive variant. Their transitive variant belongs to Object Experiencer Verbs (brinuti (se) ‘worry (self)’, čuditi (se) ‘wonder (self)’, ljutiti (se) ‘anger (self)’). The syntactic behavior of these verbs is also analyzed in detail in this paper. Although the classification of psychological verbs suggested here is established on the basis of verbs extracted from Valencijski rječnik psiholoških glagola u hrvatskome jeziku (Valency dictionary of psychological verbs in the Croatian language) and the verbs processed here are mostly from that dictionary, at the end of the paper there is a comprehensive list of all verbs with accusative or dative experiencer in the Croatian language which the authors collected so far.
