A Corpus of Literal and Idiomatic Uses of German Infinitive-Verb Compounds
We present an annotation study on a representative dataset of literal and idiomatic uses of infinitive-verb compounds in German newspaper and journal texts. Infinitive-verb compounds form a challenge for writers of German, because spelling regulations are different for literal and idiomatic uses. Through the participation of expert lexicographers we were able to obtain a high-quality corpus res...
متن کاملLiteral or idiomatic? Identifying the reading of single occurrences of German multiword expressions using word embeddings
Non-compositional multiword expressions (MWEs) still pose serious issues for a variety of natural language processing tasks and their ubiquity makes it impossible to get around methods which automatically identify these kind of MWEs. The method presented in this paper was inspired by Sporleder and Li (2009) and is able to discriminate between the literal and non-literal use of an MWE in an unsu...
متن کاملIdiomatic Java
Some examples: What is it that we express when we use an abstract class as opposed to an interface? What is the difference between the various types of inner classes and when would we prefer one over the other? How does object initialization work in detail and why would we want to avoid invocation of virtual functions in constructors? How can we implement object release and why and when can't w...
متن کاملHow to Account for Idiomatic German Support Verb Constructions in Statistical Machine Translation
Support-verb constructions (i.e., multiword expressions combining a semantically light verb with a predicative noun) are problematic for standard statistical machine translation systems, because SMT systems cannot distinguish between literal and idiomatic uses of the verb. We work on the German to English translation direction, for which the identification of support-verb constructions is chall...
متن کاملUnderstanding Idiomatic Variation
This study investigates the processing of idiomatic variants through an eye-tracking experiment. Four types of idiom variants were included, in addition to the canonical form and the literal meaning. Results suggest that modifications to idioms, modulo obvious effects of length differences, are not more difficult to process than the canonical forms themselves. This fits with recent corpus findi...
