 A Complex Predicate (CP) is a multi-word compound that functions as a single verb Ex : उसने किताब वापस कर दिया मुझे बच्चों के माता - पिताओं के साथ काम करना भी अच्छा लगता है जो कि अक्सर सलाह लेने आते हैं - यह जानकार खुशी होती है कि आप किसी की मदद कर सकते हैं |

 CP = Word + Light Verb Ex : उसने किताब वापस कर दिया कर दिया (CP) = कर (W) + दिया (LV)  A Light Verb is a verb that has little semantic content of its own and it therefore forms a predicate with some additional expression, which is usually a noun. Ex : देना, लेना, पाना, उठाना

 Given a parallel English­Hindi corpora, we have to detect complex predicates (CPs)  Using the fact that a CP is a multi­word expression with its meaning being distinct from the light verb (LV).

 CPs improve expressiveness of a language and Hindi is abundant in it

 Detection of CPs is a tough task

 CPs improve expressiveness of a language and Hindi is abundant in it  Detection of CPs is a tough task  Their detection provides important resource for tasks such as Wordnet construction, Linguistic analysis etc

I also enjoy working with the children's parents who often come to me for advice - it's good to know you can help Framework Aligned English- Hindi corpus मुझे बच्चों के माता - पिताओं के साथ काम करना भी अच्छा लगता है जो कि अक्सर सलाह लेने आते हैं - यह जानकार खुशी होती है कि आप किसी की मदद कर सकते हैं |

As of now, we have extracted 10,000 CPs But we need to add more morphological forms in Hindi LV list.

 [2] This problem was solved using word alignment and POS tagging of parallel sentences  [3] Derivation of complex predicates has also been dealt with linguistically and computationally  CPs had been mined using computational methods and then, were categorized using statistical analysis [Sriram and Joshi, 2005].  Chakrabarti et al (2008) present a method for automatic extraction of CPs only from a corpus based on linguistic features
