Although raw text corpora have been felt to be "inadequate for many of the questions Systemic Functional Linguistics asks" (Honnibal 2004: 7), annotation also creates problems, not only for its costs in terms of time and money (Wu 2009: 142), but also due to technical and philosophical issues. This chapter looks at issues surrounding automatic versus manual annotation, and discusses whether SFL corpus annotation is worthwhile.

Abstract
Although raw text corpora have been felt to be "inadequate for many of the questions Systemic Functional Linguistics asks" (Honnibal 2004: 7), annotation also creates problems, not only for its costs in terms of time and money (Wu 2009: 142), but also due to technical and philosophical issues. This chapter looks at issues surrounding automatic versus manual annotation, and discusses whether SFL corpus annotation is worthwhile. The results of a test on two taggers (UAM Corpus Tool and Halliday Center Tagger) are presented.File in questo prodotto:
