Abstract We describe tools for the extraction of collocations not only in the form of word combinations, but also of data about the morphosyntactic properties of collocation candidates. Such data are needed for a detailed lexical description of collocations, and to support both their recognition in text and the generation of collocationally acceptable text. We describe the tool architecture, re...

To date, substantial efforts have been devoted to the extraction of collocations from text corpora. However, only a few works deal with the subsequent processing of results in order for these to be successfully integrated into the NLP applications that could benefit from them (e.g., machine translation). This paper presents an accurate method for identifying translation equivalents of collocati...

The aim of this articleis twofold: on the one hand, to highlight main combinatory, semantic and syntactic features collocations inLatin and, other provide a series explanations exercises that allow students understand how they work.To do so, first we will focus restricted nature type word combinations. Next, go deeper into idea nouns, not verbs, are core these constructions. And finally, analyz...

to investigate the effect of massed and distributed collaborative and non-collaborative presentation on l2 learners’ comprehension and production of lexical collocations, 105 participants at takestan islamic azad university in 4 groups were assigned to four different treatment conditions (collaborative-massed; collaborative-distributed; noncollaborative-massed; and noncollaborative-distributed ...

The importance of collocations for success in language learning is widely recognized. Concordancers, originally designed for linguists, are among the most popular tools for students to obtain, organize, and study collocations derived from corpora. This paper describes the design and development of a collocation learning system that is built from Wikipedia text and provides language learners wit...

Collocations constitute an important type of syntagmatic information whose introduction into WordNets has not yet been addressed. The goal of our work is the integration of the collocational material for the field of emotion nouns encoded in the DIccionario de colocaciones del español (DICE) in terms of Lexical Functions into the Spanish part of the EuroWordNet (SpEWN). Two features of collocat...

Identifying collocations in a text (e.g., break record) and correctly translating them (battre record vs. *casser record) represent key issues in machine translation, notably because of their prevalence in language and their syntactic flexibility. This article describes a method for discovering translation equivalents for collocations from parallel corpora, aimed at increasing the lexical cover...

Exemple : 1 ère itération : travail administratif 2 ème itération : responsabilité de travail-administratif À chaque itération, les collocations binaires (et ternaires pour les collocations prépositionnelles) sont sélectionnées avec une mesure statistique et l'ajout de paramètres [Roche et al., 2004]. Corpus étudiés :-Corpus de Ressources Humaines (société PerformanSe) – 3784 Ko (en français)-C...
