New technologies for Old Germanic: resources and research on parallel bibles in Older Continental Western Germanic
- We provide an overview of on-going efforts to facilitate the study of older Germanic languages currently pursued at the Goethe-University Frankfurt, Germany. We describe created resources, such as a parallel corpus of Germanic Bibles and a morphosyntactically annotated corpus of Old High German (OHG) and Old Saxon, a lexicon of OHG in XML and a multilingual etymological database. We discuss NLP algorithms operating on this data, and their relevance for research in the Humanities. RDF and Linked Data represent new and promising aspects in our research, currently applied to establish cross-references between etymological dictionaries, infer new information from their symmetric closure and to formalize linguistic annotations in a corpus and grammatical categories in a lexicon in an interoperable way.
