Abstract:	The possibility to analyse vast amounts of linguistic data has brought about changes both in methodology as well as in the ways we perceive certain language phenomena. A key insight gained by computational methods in language analysis is undoubtedly the importance of lexical co-occurrence and usage patterns for the description of lexical meaning. Corpus analysis and new methods in the analysis of pragmatic components of meaning have also yielded significant results in areas such as the treatment of semantic prosody. The present paper does not focus on what is traditionally subsumed under connotation or the speaker's attitude (e.g., swear words, pejorative and offensive language, praise, excuses, requests, demands, etc.), but on ways in which the pragmatic (functional) meaning that arises from various contextual features can become an integral part of lexicographic descriptions. This is important for the treatment of all of those lexical items whose meanings reside in their function rather than in their bare lexical-semantic meaning, as this is particularly the case with phraseology and idiomatics. From another perspective, pragmatics turns out to be an effective means of sense discrimination in works of lexical and lexicographic relevance, as will be shown in the continuation.
