This paper begins with the premise
that adverbs are
neglected in computational linguistics.
This view derives from two analyses: a literature review
and a novel adverb dataset to probe a state-of-the-art language model, thereby uncovering systematic gaps
in accounts for adverb meaning.
We suggest that using Frame Semantics
for characterizing word meaning, as
in FrameNet, provides a promising approach to adverb analysis, given its ability to describe ambiguity, semantic roles, and null instantiation.
