I would like to announce a new, corpus-based dictionary tool, DeepDict,
which can be used for lexicography or as a kind of dynamic "Learner's
Dictionary". DeepDict has been built using dependency tree structures
from annotated corpora. It provides lexical frames with typical
complements and modifiers, as well as statistics and example sentences,
for verbs, nouns and adjectives.
You can try out DeepDict at http://www.gramtrans.com/deepdict/ . The system
covers English, German, Spanish, Danish and Portuguese and will
eventually add French, Italian, Norwegian and Swedish. It is free for
low-volume use for a trial period of two weeks, plus for Portuguese
(which uses Linguateca's P鷅lico corpus), but requires otherwise a
license for regular, institutional or commercial use.
Best regards,
Eckhard Bick
