Annimate. Ein Tool zum Datenexport aus den historischen Referenzkorpora
- Annimate (URL: https://github.com/matthias-stemmler/annimate, Stand: 26.11.2025) was developed to facilitate the export of results from the reference corpora for the historical German language levels (e.g. ReA (750–1050), ReM (1050–1350), ReN (1200–1650) and ReF (1350–1650)), whose data is ANNIS-based. The tool provides a user interface that allows users to export search results from all these corpora directly, along with the desired additional information. This article demonstrates the functions of Annimate and its potential for investigating language change. As a case study, we present a corpus study on the diachrony of the interjection ei/ey. In addition, we demonstrate how corpora can be evaluated using Annimate. In conclusion, the program offers a solution to a variety of practical problems in synchronous and diachronic corpus linguistic studies, and can also contribute to the evaluation of existing corpus annotations.
