Corpus Linguistics and Linguistically Annotated Corpora (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Linguistically annotated corpora are becoming a central part of the corpus linguistics field. One of its main strengths is the level of searchability it offers, but with it come problems of the initial complexity of query and query tools. This book gives a full, pedagogic account of this burgeoning field.

Beginning with an overview of corpus linguistics, its prerequisites and goals, the book then introduces linguistically annotated corpora. It explores the different levels of linguistic annotation, including morphological, parts of speech, syntactic, semantic and discourse-level, as well as their advantages and disadvantages. It covers the different annotation standards, such as EAGLES or SynAF. In its fourth part, search strategies required for different types of data are explored. All chapters are accompanied by exercises and by sections on further reading, together with an integral companion website that contains lists and guidance on contemporary annotated corpora and query tools.
