Better Statistical Machine Translation through Linguistic Treatment of Phrasal Verbs
This article describes a linguistically informed method for integrating phrasal verbs into statistical machine translation (SMT) systems. In a case study involving English to Bulgarian SMT, we show that our method does not only improve translation quality but also outperforms similar methods previously applied to the same task. We attribute this to the fact that, in contrast to previous work on...
متن کاملMeasuring compositionality in phrasal verbs
This paper demonstrates how to measure the compositionality of phrasal verbs using corpus frequencies from the BNC. This allows us to distinguish semantically transparent phrasal verbs (they lifted up their hats) from opaque ones (they summed up their feelings). Working by analogy to paradigmatic approaches to morphology (Moscoso del Prado Martín et al 2004), I use information theoretic terms t...
متن کاملAn Efficient Annotation for Phrasal Verbs using Dependency Information
In this paper, we present an efficient semiautomatic method for annotating English phrasal verbs on the OntoNotes corpus. Our method first constructs a phrasal verb dictionary based on Wiktionary, then annotates each candidate example on the corpus as an either a phrasal verb usage or a literal one. For efficient annotation, we use the dependency structure of a sentence to filter out highly pla...
متن کاملAn Expert Lexicon Approach to Identifying English Phrasal Verbs
Phrasal Verbs are an important feature of the English language. Properly identifying them provides the basis for an English parser to decode the related structures. Phrasal verbs have been a challenge to Natural Language Processing (NLP) because they sit at the borderline between lexicon and syntax. Traditional NLP frameworks that separate the lexicon module from the parser make it difficult to...
متن کاملUsing Phrasal Verbs as an Index to Distinguish Text Genres
Previous studies have shown that text genres can be computationally distinguished by sophisticated computational and statistical methods. The current study adds to the previous body of work by incorporating phrasal verbs as a text genre identifier. Results indicate that phrasal verbs significantly distinguish between both the spoken/written and formal/informal dimensions, with considerably less...
