Information structure in cross-linguistic corpora : annotation guidelines for phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics and information structure

This volume presents annotation guidelines that have been developed in the context of the SFB 632, a collaborative research center entitled "Information Structure: the Linguistic Means for Structuring Utterances, Sentences and Texts". An important result of the SFB 632 are the SFB corpora from more than 20 typologically different languages, which have been annotated according to the guidelines presented here. The ultimate target of the data and its annotations is to support the study of Information Structure. Information Structure involves all levels of grammar and, hence, the present guidelines cover relevant aspects of all these levels:

- Phonology
- Morphology
- Syntax
- Semantics
- Information Structure

These levels are dealt with in individual chapters, containing tagset declarations with obligatory and optional tags, detailed annotation instructions, and illustrative examples. The volume also presents an
evaluation of inter-annotator agreement of Syntax and Information Structural annotation.
