A SKOS-based Schema for TEI encoded Dictionaries at ICLTT

At our institutes we are working with quite some dictionaries and lexical resources in the field of less-resourced language data, like dialects and historical languages. We are aiming at publishing those lexical data in the Linked Open Data framework in order to link them with available data sets for highly-resourced languages and elevating them thus to the same “digital dignity” the mainstream...

Teaching TEI: The Need for TEI by Example

The Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) has provided a complex and comprehensive system of provisions for scholarly text encoding. Although a major focus of the ‘digital humanities’ domain, and despite much teaching effort by the TEI community, there is a lack of teaching materials available, which would encourage the adoption of the TEI’s recommendations and the widespread use of its text encoding ...

TEI HORSEing Around

The Text Encoding Initiative’s typed segment-boundary delimiter method is only one of several proposed mechanisms for handling overlap in TEI documents. HORSE (aka CLIX) defines a method by which an XML element is used normally when possible and as an improved version of the typed segment-boundary delimiter method when an overlap problem is encountered. A significant portion of the rules necess...

TEI and LMF crosswalks

The present paper explores various arguments in favour of making the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) guidelines an appropriate serialisation for ISO standard 24613:2008 (LMF, Lexical Mark-up Framework). It also identifies the issues that would have to be resolved in order to reach an appropriate implementation of these ideas, in particular in terms of informational coverage. We show how the cust...
