The paper discusses several methods of evaluating heritage speakers’ abilities in their heritage language. Speech rate in spontaneous text production, lexical knowledge and grammatical proficiency in the heritage language have been found to correlate strongly with one another. Therefore, they are recommended in the literature as quick and reliable diagnostics for establishing the general degree of heritage language maintenance among heritage speakers. Based on data from 20 heritage speakers of Polish in Germany, the current paper shows that lexical and grammatical proficiency are indeed strongly correlated, but speech rate did not turn out to be an indicator for heritage language proficiency in the examined population.

The present article outlines issues related to the semantic classification of mental verb sets. In the case of a confrontative description, there is a need to formally identify the manifested characteristics. The model that has been chosen in this article provides an integrated and coherent language description on both the semantic and syntactic levels. The study also takes into account the influence of semantic features on the predicators in the sentence structure, which permits a successful confrontative analysis. The research questions in the field of Bulgarian and Polish mental verbs that are addressed in the paper include a) a broadly understood semantic category of temporality (on the morphological and syntactic levels), and b) issues related to the realization of semantic features on a word, in relation to the predicate, on the level of syntax. The article also contains a dictionary of selected Polish and Bulgarian verbs, illustrating semantic and syntactic occurrences of these verbal forms.
