Abstract
Under the term grammaticalized alternations, we understand changes in valency frames of verbs corresponding to different surface syntactic structures of the same lexical unit of a verb. Czech grammaticalized alternations are expressed either (i) by morphological means (diatheses), or (ii) by syntactic means (reciprocity). These changes are limited to changes in morphemic form(s) of valency complementations; moreover, they are regular enough to be captured by formal syntactic rules.
In this paper a representation of Czech grammaticalized alternations and their possible combination is proposed for the valency lexicon of Czech verbs, VALLEX.
