Hi Maria,<div><br></div><div>the only possibility that comes to my mind is implementing an algorithm that surfs on Wikipedia, maybe starting from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_festivals">here</a>, using its Latin version. You could collect the expressions in a dictionary and use it to spot festivities in your documents.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Signals, or trigger words, could be filtered out over all the Wikipedia (in the language you're interested in) looking at classic date patterns (XX/XX/XXXX and so on). You can make a list of the most frequent ones and then filter it out using an expert or a proper dictionary.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I hope it will help,</div><div>michele.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Sep 19, 2012 at 12:26 PM, Maria Sukhareva <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:sukhareva.maria1@gmail.com" target="_blank">sukhareva.maria1@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I am working on a rule-based temporal tagger for Latin and I am looking for any resource that would provide lists<br>
of Latin temporal words and phrases that could serve as temporal markers in the medieval Latin texts.<br>
For example, temporal adverbs, prepositions, date and time descriptions etc. etc. but also a list of ancient Greek, Roman, Jewish, Christian and Medieval holidays and celebrations (all translated in Latin) as well as a list of Biblical temporal markers.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Maria<br>
