Annotating Spatial Interpretations of German Prepositions
A. H. Müller, C. Le Roch, Tobias Stadtfeld, Tibor Kiss · 2011
Traditional approaches to prepositions classify preposition lexemes into different semantic classes like spatial, temporal or modal ones. In this paper we reconsider the so-called spatial prepositions and their sub classification. We propose a sense based classification of prepositions using traditional criteria to determine different classes of spatial-preposition interpretations. Our work on spatial preposition senses is part of a bigger project of developing an annotation scheme for a subset of German prepositions.
