Russian National Corpus 2.0: New opportunities and development prospects
The paper provides an overview of the results of the fundamental reconstruction and modernization project of the National Corpus of the Russian Language platform, carried out from 2020 to 2023. The focus of the paper is on the new opportunities that are opening up for linguists and a wider audience. This includes improving the representativeness of existing corpora, creating new corpora, new annotation obtained through the application of neural n…
Word-formation complexity: A learner corpus-based study
This article explores the word-formation dimension of learner text complexity which indicates how skilful the non-native speakers are in using more and less complex - and varied - derivational constructions. In order to analyse the association between complexity and writing accuracy in word formation as well as interactive effects of task type, text register, and native language background, we examine the materials of the REALEC corpus of English…
Verb rhyme in Russian poetry: A quantitative analysis
Quantitative Approaches to the Russian Language
Predicting Russian Aspect by Frequency Across Genres
We ask whether the aspect of individual verbs can be predicted based on the statistical distribution of their inflectional forms and how this is influenced by genre. To address these questions, we present an analysis of the “grammatical profiles” (relative frequency distributions of inflectional forms) of three samples of verbs extracted from the Russian National Corpus, representing three genres: Journalistic prose, Fiction, and Scientific-Techn…
Semantic Profiles of Five Russian Prefixes: Po- , s- , za- , na- , pro
We test the hypothesis that Russian verbal prefixes express meaning even when they are used to create a “purely aspectual pair” ( čistovidovaja para ). This is contrary to traditional assumptions that prefixes in this function are semantically “empty.” We analyze the semantic tags independently established in the Russian National Corpus ( www.ruscorpora.ru ) for 382 perfective partner verbs with five of the most common verbal prefixes in Russian:…
Prefix variation as a challenge to Russian aspectual pairs: Are завязнуть and увязнуть ‘get stuck’ the same or different
Two key issues in Russian linguistics are the traditional assumptions that (a) the aspect system presents ‘pairs’ of verbs that are perfective vs. imperfective, and that (b) since the lexical meanings of the two verbs that form a pair are identical, the affix that marks aspect has no semantic content. In relation to prefixed perfectives, this approach can be called the Empty Prefix Hypothesis. The alternative approach, which can be called the Ove…
Grammatical profiles and the interaction of the lexicon with aspect, tense, and mood in Russian
We propose the "grammatical profile" as a means of probing the aspectual behavior of verbs. A grammatical profile is the relative frequency distribution of the inflected forms of a word in a corpus. The grammatical profiles of Russian verbs provide data on two crucial issues: a) the overall relationship between perfective and imperfective verbs and b) the identification of verbs that characterize various intersections of aspect, tense and mood (T…
О задачах и методах словообразовательной разметки в корпусе текстов (Word-formation annotation of the Russian National Corpus – aims and methods)
This article reports on a project aimed at creating a full-fledged word- formation annotation of the Russian National Corpus (http: //rus- corpora.ru). In the article we outline the goals of the first stage of our work - compiling a word-formation database suitable for corpus an- notation. We furthermore discuss some important theoretical problems of Russian word-formation, describe stipulated searching possibilities and the annotation format, an…
Why по слушать, but у слышать
This article provides a preliminary analysis of aspectual prefixation of Russian perception verbs. It is argued that the choice of prefix is not arbitrary, but depends on the meaning of the verb stem
