Der Beitrag zeigt, auf welch grundlegende Weise das Paradigma der Corpus-Driven-Linguistics (CDL) die linguistische Beschreibung sprachlichen Usus auf der Basis mathematisch-statistischer Clusteringverfahren bestimmt. Es soll deutlich werden, wie sich diese Prämissen im Forschungsschwerpunkt zur linguistischen Systematisierung und Interpretation von Kookkurrenzdaten manifestieren.
This contribution presents the newest version of our ’Wortverbindungsfelder’ (fields of multi-word expressions), an experimental lexicographic resource that focusses on aspects of MWEs that are rarely addressed in traditional descriptions: Contexts, patterns and interrelations. The MWE fields use data from a very large corpus of written German (over 6 billion word forms) and are created in a strictly corpus-based way. In addition to traditional lexicographic descriptions, they include quantitative corpus data which is structured in new ways in order to show the usage specifics. This way of looking at MWEs gives insight in the structure of language and is especially interesting for foreign language learners.
In my talk, I present an empirical approach to detecting and describing proverbs as frozen sentences with specific functions in current language use. We have developed this approach in the EU project ‘SprichWort’ (based on the German Reference Corpus). The first chapter illustrates selected aspects of our complex, iterative procedure to validate proverb candidates. Based on our corpus-driven lexpan methodology of slot analysis I then discuss semantic restrictions of proverb patterns. Furthermore, I show different degrees of proverb quality ranging from genuine proverbs to non-proverb realizations of the same abstract pattern. On the one hand, the corpus validation reveals that proverbs are definitely perceived and used as relatively fixed entities and often as sentences. On the other hand, proverbs are not only interpreted as an interesting unique phenomenon but also as part of the whole lexicon, embedded in networks of different lexical items.
This paper presents our model of ‘MultiWord Patterns’ (MWPs). MWPs are defined as recurrent frozen schemes with fixed lexical components and productive slots that have a holistic – but not necessarily idiomatic – meaning and/or function, sometimes only on an abstract level. These patterns can only be reconstructed with corpus-driven, iterative (qualitative-quantitative) methods. This methodology includes complex phrase searches, collocation analysis that not only detects significant word pairs, but also significant syntagmatic cotext patterns and slot analysis with our UWV Tool. This tool allows us to bundle KWICs in order to detect the nature of lexical fillers for and to visualize MWP hierarchies.
We present a corpus-driven approach to the study of multi-word expressions, which constitute a significant part of. As a data basis, we use collocation profiles computed from DeReKo (Deutsches Referenzkorpus), the largest available collection of written German which has approximately two billion word tokens and is located at the Institute for the German Language (IDS). We employ a strongly usage-based approach to multi-word expressions, which we think of as conventionalised patterns in language use that manifest themselves in recurrent syntagmatic patterns of words. They are defined by their distinct function in language. To find multi-word expressions, we allow ourselves to be guided by corpus data and statistical evidence as much as possible, making interpretative steps carefully and in a monitored fashion. We develop a procedure of interpretation that leads us from the evidence of collocation profiles to a collection of recurrent word patterns and finally to multi-word expressions. When building up a collection of multi-word expressions in this fashion, it becomes clear that the expressions can be defined on different levels of generalisation and are interrelated in various ways. This will be reflected in the documentation and presentation of the findings. We are planning to add annotation in a way that allows grouping the multi-word expressions according to different features and to add links between them to reflect their relationships, thus constructing a network of multi-word expressions.
Der Artikel diskutiert Ziele, Methoden und Probleme einer geplanten deutsch-französischen Übersetzungsplattform. Auf der Basis paralleler und vergleichbarer Korpora sollen mit Hilfe dieses elektronischen Werkzeuges nicht nur Übersetzungsvorschläge für Einzelwörter, sondern auch für Kollokationen, Phrasen und systematisierte Verwendungskontexte gemacht werden. Dabei geht es vor allem um die Erfassung jener Einheiten, die nicht in traditionellen Wörterbüchern stehen, aber bereits Usus sind. Das Projekt integriert drei Herangehensweisen: Korpusbasiertheit, Orientierung auf Idiomatizität als relevanes Übersetzungsprinzip, Kontextbezogenheit. Der Beitrag umreißt den Projektansatz anhand der Kollokationsproblematik.
