Zero-derived nouns and deverbal nominalization: Database for German

This is a collection of deverbal zero-derived nouns with various information on their date of attestation, etymology, frequency, possible interpretations and their ability to realize verbal argument structure. Most of this information is extracted from lexical resources, in particular dictonaries. Examples with argument structure are extracted from natural text corpora. There are four collections in total for English, Italian, Spanish and German. The English and the Italian collections follow a parallel structure, while the Spanish and the German one are more targeted on the research purposes of the students who created them.
