Abstract

On Semantic Annotation in Clarin-PL Parallel CorporaIn the article, the authors present a proposal for semantic annotation in Clarin-PL parallel corpora: Polish-Bulgarian-Russian and Polish-Lithuanian ones. Semantic annotation of quantification is a novum in developing sentence level semantics in multilingual parallel corpora. This is why our semantic annotation is manual. The authors hope it will be interesting to IT specialists working on automatic processing of the given natural languages. Semantic annotation defined the way it is defined here will make contrastive studies of natural languages more efficient, which in turn will help verify the results of those studies, and will certainly improve human and machine translations.

Highlights

  • Petri nets are built of a finite number of objects symbolizing states and events, which are connected by a succession relation

  • Succession relations lead either from an event to a state or from a state to an event

  • The distinction between states and events is an important feature of Petri nets

Summary

Introduction

The meanings of events and states (e1 − e2 and s1 − s2) can be illustrated well by the example of the aspectual-temporal relation, i.e. when the verbal form expresses a specific tense in a sentence (here in a Bulgarian, Polish, Russian or Lithuanian sentence). In the second volume of the Bulgarian-Polish Contrastive Grammar (Koseska-Tosheva & Gargov, 1990) the quantification model of the semantic definiteness/indefiniteness category applies to the verbal phrase and the whole sentence.
