In metonymic shifts, meaning is extended by conceptual contiguity and a change of referent is required, since one entity is used to denote another which is conceptually associated with it (Je\u017eek, 2016: 59) . This is the case, for instance, of the alternation container/content, exemplified by sentences such as \"I would have eaten the whole fridge\", where fridge actually stands for the food it contains.",

The possibility for more than one of the senses of a complex entity to be activated simultaneously is called co-predication and is a prerogative of inherently polysemous words.",

Since the resource rests on Generative Lexicon Theory (Pustejovsky, 1995 (Pustejovsky, & 1998 Pustejovsky & Je\u017eek, 2008) , metonymies are annotated and analysed as Semantic Type Coercions (see section 2.2).

"text": "In CROATPAS, our CPA-inspired methodology consists in the following four steps: 1) sampling 250 random concordances from a representative corpus of Standard Croatian for each verb entry, namely the Croatian Web as Corpus (Ljube\u0161i\u0107 & Klubi\u010dka, 2014) ; 2) manually disambiguating its different senses and 3) associating the right SemTypes to the argument slots found in each sensebound valency structure. The fourth and last step is only possible thanks to our editing environment SKEMA, which is connected to the Croatian Web as Corpus through the Sketch Engine corpus management platform (Kilgarriff et al., 2014) and enables annotators to create patterns for each retrieved verb sense, such as the ones in (English, to drink) As you can see from the patterns above, the first sense of the Croatian verb piti (English, to drink) is the most obvious one, namely that of an [Animate] drinking a [Beverage] . However, if a [Human] is told to be drinking a [Drug] -such as a pill or antibiotics (Croatian, tabletu and antibiotike) -then he or she is simply ingesting or swallowing them. Finally, if we talk of a [Human] drinking (without specifying any direct object), he or she is by default ingesting an alcoholic drink.",

At present, the resource contains 457 patterns and 106 metonymic sub patterns. The overall number of annotated corpus lines is 22,052, of which 1,052 are linked to the 106 metonymic sub patterns they provide evidence for. We explained the mechanism underlying how metonymy works in our chosen framework and provided an overview of the set of semantic labels we used, together with a clarification of our verb choice. Our results show that [Area] ! [Human Group] proves to be our most frequent Semantic Type Coercion, appearing 25 out of 179 times. Sound verbs such as tutnjati (English, to rumble), odjekivati (English, to echo) and slu\u0161ati/poslu\u0161ati (English, to listen) position themselves amongst the most coercive verbs in the sample: a result supported also by the fact that the most frequent Target Type, appearing in 39 coercion instances out of 179, is [Sound] . On the other hand, the most frequent Source Type is [Area], a finding which agrees with the data on the most frequent Semantic Type coercions overall. From a tentative analysis of clause role predisposition to Semantic Type Coercion, all argument slots seem to be able to enable the shift. In order to give a stronger claim to our results and evaluate the CROATPAS resource, we plan on involving other annotators and devise a task to measure the degree of Inter Annotator Agreement. Once evaluated, we believe that our inventory of manually annotated metonymic corpus lines could be used as training data to develop an automatic metonymy recognition method. Current ongoing work is focussed on comparing our results with an equivalent annotation performed in the TPAS resource on the set of Italian verbs which corresponds to the first half of our Croatian sample (Romani, 2020 ",
