Abstract

We discuss several treebank conceptions in the literature and show that their requirements may be incompatible, describing then the options taken in the construction of a Portuguese treebank, in what concerns human vs. automatic intervention. Use cases are then listed in connection with a Web search tool (Águia), whose philosophy and implementation is presented.
