In this study, I examined whether LLMs (large language models) can be used to classify verbs by meaning. Furthermore, I clarified what factors an LLM focuses on to distinguish such meanings by investigating an internal mechanism called “attention.” Although some of the results differed from the claims made in previous research, they suggested that LLMs could be used as exploratory tools for further research in linguistics.
