[Corpora-List] Temporal words and phrases in Latin

[Michele Filannino]

Hi Maria,

the only possibility that comes to my mind is implementing an algorithm
that surfs on Wikipedia, maybe starting from
here<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_festivals>,
using its Latin version. You could collect the expressions in a dictionary
and use it to spot festivities in your documents.

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.

I hope it will help,
michele.
