We present an approach for modeling German negation in open-domain fine grained sentiment analysis. Unlike most previous work in sentiment analysis, we assume that negation can be conveyed by many lexical units (and not only common negation words) and that different negation words have different scopes. Our approach is examined on a new dataset comprising sentences with mentions of polar expressions and various negation words. We identify different types of negation words that have the same scopes. We show that already negation modeling based on these types largely outperforms traditional negation models which assume the same scope for all negation words and which employ a window-based scope detection rather than a scope detection based on syntactic information.

We present a method for detecting and reconstructing separated particle verbs in a corpus of spoken German by following an approach suggested for written language. Our study shows that the method can be applied successfully to spoken language, compares different ways of dealing with structures that are specific to spoken language corpora, analyses some remaining problems, and discusses ways of optimising precision or recall for the method. The outlook sketches some possibilities for further work in related areas.
