Vorgestellt wird das Korpus deutschsprachiger Songtexte als innovative Sprachdatenquelle für interdisziplinäre Untersuchungsszenarien und speziell für den Einsatz im Fremd- und Zweitsprachenunterricht. Die Ressource dokumentiert Eigenschaften konzeptioneller Schriftlichkeit und konzeptioneller Mündlichkeit und erlaubt empirisch begründete Analysen sprachlicher Phänomene bzw. Tendenzen in den Texten moderner Popmusik. Vorgestellt werden Design, Annotationen und Anwendungsbeispiele des in thematische und autorenspezifische Archive stratifizierten Korpus.
Song lyrics can be considered as a text genre that has features of both written and spoken discourse, and potentially provides extensive linguistic and cultural information to scientists from various disciplines. However, pop songs play a rather subordinate role in empirical language research so far - most likely due to the absence of scientifically valid and sustainable resources. The present paper introduces a multiply annotated corpus of German lyrics as a publicly available basis for multidisciplinary research. The resource contains three types of data for the investigation and evaluation of quite distinct phenomena: TEI-compliant song lyrics as primary data, linguistically and literary motivated annotations, and extralinguistic metadata. It promotes empirically/statistically grounded analyses of genre-specific features, systemic-structural correlations and tendencies in the texts of contemporary pop music. The corpus has been stratified into thematic and author-specific archives; the paper presents some basic descriptive statistics, as well as the public online frontend with its built-in evaluation forms and live visualisations.
The paper describes preliminary studies regarding the usage of Example-Based Querying for specialist corpora. We outline an infrastructure for its application within the linguistic domain. Example-Based Querying deals with retrieval situations where users would like to explore large collections of specialist texts semantically, but are unable to explicitly name the linguistic phenomenon they look for. As a way out, the proposed framework allows them to input prototypical everyday language examples or cases of doubt, which are automatically processed by CRF and linked to appropriate linguistic texts in the corpus.
