  Subject: Call for Participation: Workshop on annotating constructions


Workshop

*Annotating grammatical constructions: issues, options, tutorials*

When? June 26, 2017, 10 a.m ? 5 p.am

Where? Haus der Universität ("Wichelmann-Raum"), Heinrich Heine  
University Düsseldorf

Invited guest: Michael Ellsworth (International Computer Science  
Institute, FrameNet, Berkeley)

_Topics & aims:_

Constructions are said to be pairings of form and meaning that can be  
both schematic (e.g. the ditransitive construction) or abstract (e.g.  
the predicate-subject construction). How can we determine the  
meaning(s) of constructions based on semantic annotations? The  
grammaticographic workshop brings together linguists who are facing  
the challenge of annotating grammatical constructions beyond  
frequency-related issues in quantitative corpus linguistics.

Methodologically, the workshop is based on preliminary work within the  
so-called FrameNet constructicon (e.g., Fillmore et al. 2012, for an  
overview: Ziem 2014). Important issues include, but are not limited to,

-Defining construction-related terminology

-Identifying construction elements, construction evoking elements, and  
triggers of constructions

-The ?lumping-and-splitting? problem in grammaticography

-Modeling form and meaning of constructions and networks of constructions

-Determining the ?depth? of the annotation

-Coping with discontinuous constructions.

Michael Ellsworth (ICSI, Berkeley) will join us as expert on the field  
of annotating both semantic frames and grammatical constructions.  
Although the major focus lies on practical issues, including hands-on  
sessions, there will be the opportunity of discussing issues arising  
from analyses of specific constructions addressed by the participants.

If you are interested in participating in the one-day workshop, please  
send an email not later than *May 20^th * to ziem at phil.hhu.de  
<mailto:ziem at phil.hhu.de>.

Training materials as well as coffee, drinks, and snacks will be provided.

The participation fee is 60 Euro.
