Stable Coordinated Pairs in Text Processing

Stable coordinated pairs (SCPs), e.g., comments and suggestions, far and near, sooner or later occur rather frequently in various European languages, whereas there is only a few thousands of them. We argue that a dictionary of SCPs of the given language supplied with their characteristics of lexical, morphological, syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic nature can help in such important natural language processing tasks and applications as word sense disambiguation, parsing, as well as detection and correction of semantic errors.
