Swedish FrameNet++ and comparative linguistics
View through CrossRef
Abstract
In this chapter we describe a multilingual
extension of Swedish FrameNet++, intended to address research
questions of a broad comparative nature, in genealogical, areal and
typological linguistics, focusing on the integration into Swedish
FrameNet++ of so-called core vocabularies, used in several
linguistic subfields in order to conduct massive comparative studies
involving large numbers of languages. Specifically, we describe the
inclusion of two such lexical databases covering several hundred
South Asian languages, with the aim of investigating areal and
genealogical connections among these languages.
