Joint Semantic Predicate & Semantic Role Annotation
for German (GNVN)

Standard and non-standard GNVN Corpora for German

We provide semantic annotation for standard and non-standard varieties of German texts annotated jointly with GermaNet senses for verbal predicates (GN) and an adapted VerbNet-style role inventory for semantic arguments (VN).

These resources were created in the CLARIN-D curation project "Semantic Annotation for Digital Humanities" by the ICL at Heidelberg University and the UKP Lab at the Technical University of Darmstadt.
