Abstract
This article proposes a method of Semantic Role Labelling for languages with no reliable deep syntactic parser and with limited corpora annotated with semantic roles. Reasonable results may be achieved with the help of shallow parsing, provided that features used for training such shallow parsers include both lexical semantic information (here: hypernymy) and syntactic information.
