Infrastructure for Linguistics: Introduction

Abstract

Given its origins in linguistics and language technology, it should come as no surprise that CLARIN-LC created many infrastructural facilities for linguistics. These will be discussed in this part of the book, with the exception of infrastructural facilities for syntax, to which a separate part of this book is dedicated (Part III). The chapters in this part only partially cover the work done in CLARIN-LC to support linguistic research. I will rst provide a brief overall overview of the relevant data and soware that resulted from CLARIN-LC (section 9.2), and then summarise the topics of the chapters of this part (section 9.3).
