Seit Mitte der 1990er Jahre wird am Institut für deutsche Sprache (IDS) in Mannheim erforscht, wie der hochkomplexe Gegenstandsbereich „Grammatik“ unter Ausnutzung hypertextueller Navigationsstrukturen wissenschaftlich fundiert und anschaulich vermittelt werden kann. Eine zentrale Bedeutung kommt folglich einer konsistenten, theorieübergreifenden Vernetzung sämtlicher Textinhalte zu. Um eine automatisierbare Bezugnahme zwischen mit unterschiedlichem terminologischem Vokabular formulierten, aber das gleiche sprachliche Phänomen beschreibenden Inhalten zu befördern, bildet eine onomasiologisch konzipierte Terminologiedatenbank das Rückgrat des Online-Systems. Der Beitrag beschreibt Konzeption und Aufbau der skizzierten linguistischen Fachterminologie.
Grammars even trying to be as comprehensible as possible hardly avoid using technical terms unknown to novices. To overcome these inconveniencies, the grammatical information system grammis of the Institut für Deutsche Sprache incorporated a glossary specialized on terms used within the system. This glossary - actually named Grammatische Grundbegriffe (elementary terms of grammar) and tied by hyperlinks to technical terms in the core grammar' of grammis - offers short and simple explanations mainly by means of exemplification. The idea is to provide the users with provisional understanding to get along while following the main themes they are interested in. Explicitly, the glossary is not a stand-alone dictionary of grammatical terms, and it should not be regarded as one.
This article evaluates the terminological component (TC) of the grammis portal on German grammar developed by the Institut für Deutsche Sprache. The TC is included into grammis to facilitate nonlinguists‘ access to the main components of the portal: Grammar in questions and answers, and the Systematic Grammar. The TC thus has the potential to be an extremely useful and important grammis component. We discuss to what extend the TC achieves its goals, and make some suggestions how it could be improved. The most important aspects considered in the evaluation are: (a) TC completeness and consistency, (b) accessibility and usability of definitions and index, (c) integration of the TC with the overall system.
The grammatical information system grammis combines descriptive texts on German grammar with dictionaries of specific word classes and grammatical terminology. In this paper, we describe the first attempts at analyzing user behavior for an online grammar of the German language and the implementation of an analysis and data extraction tool based on Matomo, a web analytics tool. We focus on the analysis of the keywords the users search for, either within grammis or via an external search platform like Google, and the analysis of the interaction between the text components within grammis and the integrated dictionaries. The overall results show that about 50% of the searches are for grammatical terms, and that the users shift from texts to dictionaries, mainly by using the integrated links to the dictionary of terminology within the texts. Based on these findings, we aim to improve grammis by extending its integrated dictionaries.
Grammatikographie mit Neuen Medien: Erfahrungen beim Aufbau eines grammatischen Informationssystems
(1997)
In 1993, a research group at the Institut für deutsche Sprache (Mannheim) began to develop a Hypermedia grammar. It integrates components of the comprehensive Grammatik der Deutschen Sprache of the IdS into an interactive information system called GRAMMIS (»Grundlagen eines grammatischen Informationssystems«). After some background considerations, the design of the system is presented, and the functioning of some of the components is illustrated. Parts of its present version, Grammis-3, are also accessible via Internet. Practical experiences so far are very encouraging. The paper concludes with a discussion of future prospects.
In this paper, we present our approach to automatically extracting German terminology in the domain of grammar using texts from the online information system grammis as our corpus. We analyze existing repositories of German grammatical terminology and develop Part-of-speech patterns for our extraction thereby showing the importance of unigrams in this domain. We contrast the results of the automatic extraction with a manually extracted standard. By comparing the performance of well-known statistical measures, we show how measures based on corpus comparison outperform alternative methods.
