[EN] Events are prototypically expressed by verbs, but predicate nouns are also able to denote states of affairs. In this paper, we intend to analyse the verbal features of these nouns with a twofold purpose: on the one hand, we attempt to align the treatment of their complementation structures with Functional Grammar, addressing the different semantic participants involved in the event ? arguments, adjuncts and disjuncts ? and their syntactic codification. On the other hand, we describe and illustrate other verbal features that have not been considered as such so far, such as Aspect, Tense, Mood, and Voice. Additionally, in this work we highlight the special role played by collocations as a linguistic resource that allows the encoding of these verbal features.
