Abstract

This research deals with some of the verbs that give certain
meanings, when they followed by a certain complementation of the verb.
This means that verb complementation restricts the verb uses and meanings
in certain verbs. Many examples given to shed the light on these verbs
mentioned earlier. The different meanings of verbs are affected by the
complementation that follows them and the way that complementation can
affect the original meaning of the verb itself semantically and syntactically.
The items that follow these verbs, are obligatory and not optional, complete
the verb meaning. The complementation restricts the syntactic and semantic
analysis of the verb. In addition, other functions affect the original meaning
of the verb like metaphor, syntactic structure, intonation, the intended
meaning of the speaker and other certain situations. These items can change
the syntactic and semantic features of verbs.
