[CWB] A question on CQP attribute sets

[Ruprecht von Waldenfels]

Hi Igor,

I have integrated this kind of annotation into CWB for the ParaSol 
corpus (parasol.unibe.ch). The solution I used is similar and straight 
forward; the main challenge, I think, is providing (a) for an 
unspecified number of analyses and (b) making sure that the different 
analyses don't get mixed up

For example, Russian "dam" EITHER  1.SG of the verb /dat'/ 'give' OR 
GEN.PL of the noun /dama/ 'lady'; but it is not the first person 
singular of the noun nor the Genitive Plural of the verb.

Therefore, I feel one must go for a rather complex annotation, which can 
then be queried by using a regular expression. The machinery is

FORM ANNOTATION
dam  1:SG:PF-dat::GEN:PL-dama-

and then you can query for, say, Genitive by searching for

[annot=".*:GEN:.*"]

for /dama/ 'lady'

[annot=".*-dama-.*"]

for the  combination (genitives of /dama/)

[annot=".*GEN[^-]*-dama-.*"]

The "[^-]*" part will ensure that the GEN part does not belong to a 
different lemma.

I believe this might constitute a complete solution, and it should be 
possible to hide the complexity from the user by wrapping this in a more 
convenient interface.

Best,
Ruprecht
