Abstract
Lexicalized metaphors are recognized as metaphorical uses of language, yet their meaning is largely set in a given language.A lexicographic type is a group of lexemes with a shared property or properties,not necessarily semantic, which are sensitive to the same linguistic rules andwhich should therefore be uniformly described in the dictionary. I shall exemplify this concept with the classes of factive and putative predicates. Both ofthem will be narrowed down to the subclasses of verbs denoting mental states(not processes or actions).
