Summary/Abstract: The aim of the analysis is to present a valence characteristics of the noun diagnoza (diagnosis). I start with reviewing several dictionary definitions, in order to find out how many meanings of diagnoza should be recognized. In what follows, I describe the deep structure of diagnoza, based on the analysis of the examples from the selected dictionaries and The Polish Valency Dictionary (Walenty). The next step is to characterize morphological and semantic criteria for the positions opened by this noun. And finally, I discuss some problems with interpreting surface realizations of this noun. The analysis is based on the evidence from The National Corpus of Polish.
