  abstract  = {Valency slot filling is a semantic glue, which brings together the meanings of
	words. As regards the position of an argument in the dependency structure with
	respect to its predicate, there exist three types of valency filling: active
	(canonical), passive, and discontinuous. Of these, the first type is studied
	much better than the other two. As a rule, canonical actants are unambiguously
	marked in the syntactic structure, and each actant corresponds to a unique
	syntactic position. Linguistic information on which syntactic function an
	actant might have (subject, direct or indirect object), what its morphological
	form should be and which prepositions or conjunctions it requires, can be given
	in the lexicon in the form of government patterns, subcategorization frames, or
	similar data structures. We concentrate on non-canonical cases of valency
	filling in Russian, which are characteristic of non-verbal parts of speech,
	such as adverbs, adjectives, and particles, in the first place. They are more
	difficult to handle than canonical ones, because the position of the actant in
	the tree is governed by more complicated rules. A valency may be filled by
	expressions occupying different syntactic positions, and a syntactic position
	may accept expressions filling different valencies of the same word. We show
	how these phenomena can be processed in a semantic analyzer.},
