About the Attestation Search Results Page

Use this button to hide/show the word classes of the individual sentence elements.

For an overview of the different word classes employed, see here.

Use this button to hide/show the grammatical annotations of the individual sentence elements according to the original encoding in the Berlin Text System (BTS).

For an overview of the glossing abbreviations of the grammatical annotations of the BTS, see here.

Note: Not all sentences in the TLA are grammatically annotated (see the tags “[G]” in the broad overview on the text corpus page). If this is not the case, ideally “(unedited)” is displayed for all sentence words, or else the ambiguous “(unspecified),” which is also used in grammatically annotated texts to mark forms whose form corresponds to that of the assigned lemma entry (base form). In these cases, only grammatical forms of the lemma are calculated for the Linguistic glossing (see below).

Use this button to hide/show an automatically generated linguistic interlinear morphemic glossing of the individual sentence elements. This is calculated based on the word class and the grammatical encoding in the BTS (in specific cases directly on the basis of the assigned lemma).

For an overview of the linguistic glossing abbreviations, see here.

Note: In the case of sentences that have not been grammatically annotated in the BTS (see “Gram. tagging BTS” above), only the features of the lemma, not those of the eventually inflected sentence element, can be computed for the linguistic morphemic glossing. This concerns especially nominal elements, for which m.sg is computed in each case, sometimes misleadingly.

(Unfortunately, we are currently not yet able to reliably determine automatically which texts are (not) grammatically annotated, and therefore cannot react accordingly.)

Use this button to hide/show the meaning of the individual sentence elements. The text authors can optionally select these in the BTS from the set of translation equivalents of the respective lemma, or they can enter them manually (contextual meaning).

Note: This possibility of a contextual specification is not always used by authors. In this case all suggested translation equivalents of the assigned lemma are displayed.

Use this button to show/hide the stable IDs of the individual sentence elements. By means of these, individual sentence elements can be cited and referred to persistently.
