2.1 The Relation between Modifier and
Deverbal Head
</SectionTitle>
      <Paragraph position="0"> The relation between constituents in deverbal compounds null  can first be divided into two: (i) the modifier becomes an internal argument (Grimshaw, 1990) and (ii) the modifier functions as an adjunct. We as- null In the case of English the equivalent is nominalizations, but for simplicity we use deverbal compounds. sume these two kinds of relations are the target of our analysis model because argument/adjunct relations are basic but extensible to more detailed semantic relations by assuming more complex semantic system. Besides these relations related to argument structure of verbs are the boundary between syntax and semantics, then our approach must be extendable to be incorporated into sytactic analysis.</Paragraph>

2.2 LCS-based Disambiguation Model
</SectionTitle>
      <Paragraph position="0"> We assume that the discrimination between argument and adjunct relations can be done by the combination of the LCS (we call TLCS) on the side of deverbal heads and the consistent categorization of modifier nouns on the basis of their behavior vis-`avis a few canonical TLCS types of deverbal heads.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph position="1"> Figure 1 shows examples of disambiguating relations using TLCS for the deverbal heads 'sousa' (operate) and 'hon'yaku' (translate). In TLCSes, the words written in capital letters are semantics predicates, 'x' denotes the external argument, and 'y' and 'z' denote the internal arguments (see Section 3).</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph position="2">  and deverbal head The approach we propose consists of three elements: categorization of deverbals and nominalizations, categorization of modifier noun and restriction rules for identifying relations.</Paragraph>
