Abstract

In this paper I describe a particular Dutch linguistic problem and I show that it can be addressed in a better, more efficient, and more user-friendly manner than ever before, thanks to CLARIN. Most of the data that are used in the investigation could only be used by technical experts a few years ago but are now available to all linguists through a variety of easily accessible web applications developed in CLARIN with interfaces dedicated to their intended users. However, it also shows that still a lot of further extensions and improvements can and must be made. Fortunately, most of these are being implemented in currently running projects.
