Constructicography at work: implementation and application of the German Constructicon
Alexander Ziem, Johanna Flick · Yearbook of the German Cognitive Linguistics Association · 2019
Abstract The paper introduces the implementation and application of the German Constructicon hosted at the University of Düsseldorf ( www.german-constructicon.de ). The ultimate goal of the German Constructicon Project (GCP) is not only to identify and describe oftentimes overlooked grammatical constructions, but also to offer comprehensive descriptions in a dictionary-like online repository. Based on constructicographic analyses of the construction family negating_connector, including geschweige denn (‘let alone’), the paper reports on the annotation categories and the computational work routine yielding construction entries.
