Summary/Abstract: In the paper we focus on the relationship between knowledge and the world. We address this issue through the study of the class of “verb + noun collocations”. We notice that valid classifications of human behavior may be based on properties of the verb constituents of such structures. Verb + noun collocations appear to be a useful tool for the design of linguistically motivated ontologies.
