Corpora: annotation tools

[Jörg Tiedemann]

Dear list members,

I'm looking for freely available language-specific annotation tools such
as tokenizer, lemmatizer, POS-tagger, chunker/shallow-parser for the
following languages:

        Spanish
        French
        German
        Swedish
        Finnish
        Polish
        other languages (even English)

I'm looking for tools which are ready to use and preferably run on Linux.
Information on performance and tagset would be appreciated, too.

I will post a summary!
Thank you very much!


Jörg
