[Corpora-List] corpora with regular expression engine (syntactic pattern)

[Adam Kilgarriff]

Dear Austina,

There are quite a few pieces of infrastucture  (corpus, tagger, query
engine, interface) to put together to get what you want: in the
Sketch Engine this has all been done for you.  There are tagged corpora for
these languages (and plenty of others) already set up, so you can go to a
corpus (here the British Academic Written English (BAWE)), type in a query
(for eg ditransitive verb constructions where first NP is a pronoun)

"VV.*" "PP" "DET"? "JJ"* "NN"+

(this is a CQL query with default attribute set to 'tag', operating over
the CLAWS English tagset)
