Abstract

Prepositions are highly polysemous. Yet, little effort has been spent to develop language-specific annotation schemata for preposition senses to systematically represent and analyze the polysemy of prepositions in large corpora. In this paper, we present an annotation schema for preposition senses in German. The annotation schema includes a hierarchical taxonomy and also allows multiple annotations for individual tokens. It is based on an analysis of usage-based dictionaries and grammars and has been evaluated in an inter-annotator-agreement study.
