The Generative Lexicon (GL) is a linguistics
theory which sees the sense as a complex bundle
of orthogonal dimensions that express the multidi-
mensionality of word meaning. The most impor-
tant component for representing the lexical seman-
tics of a word sense is the qualia structure which
consists of four qualia roles:
Formal. Makes it possible to identify an en-
tity.
Constitutive. Expresses the constitution of an
entity.
Agentive. Provides information about the
origin of an entity.
Telic. Specifies the function of an entity.
