Abstract
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> A large corpus (about 100 MB of text) was selected and examples of 750 fl'equently occurring verbs were tagged with their compleinent (:lass as defined by a large computational syntactic dictionary, COMLEX Syntax. This tagging task led to the refinement of already existing classes and to the addition of classes that had previously not been defined.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="1"> This has resulted in the enrichment and improvement of the original COMLEX Syntax dictionary. Tagging also provides statistical data which will allow users to select, more common complelnents of a particular verb and ignore rare usage.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="2"> We discuss below some of the problems encountered in tagging and their resolution. null</Paragraph>
