    <Paragraph position="0"> This paper described and evaluated a substantial extension to Levin's widely employed verb classi cation, which incorporates 57 novel classes and 106 diathesis alternations for verbs not covered comprehensively by Levin. The utility of the novel classes was demonstrated by using them to support automatic subcategorization acquisition. The coverage of the resulting extended classication over the English verb lexicon was shown to be good. Discussion was provided on how the classi cation could be further re ned and extended in the future, and integrated into Levin's extant taxonomy, to yield a single, comprehensive resource.</Paragraph>
