Corona, Luisa and Paola Pietrandrea 2021 Chapter 15. In a manner of speaking: The co-construction of manner in spoken Italian dialoguesBuilding Categories in Interaction: Linguistic resources at work, Mauri, Caterina, Ilaria Fiorentini and Eugenio Goria (eds.), pp. 415–438 | Chapter
We provide a functional, corpus-driven definition of the category of Manner and we observe its (co)-construction in interactional discourse. In the linguistic literature, Manner has been traditionally approached as a basic cognitive prime, expressing the way in which an action is performed. It… read more
Kahane, Sylvain and Paola Pietrandrea 2019 Chapter 3. Syntactic annotation of the Rhapsodie corpus: An overviewRhapsodie: A prosodic and syntactic treebank for spoken French, Lacheret-Dujour, Anne, Sylvain Kahane and Paola Pietrandrea (eds.), pp. 35–47 | Chapter
This chapter presents the principles underlying the syntactic annotation and in particular the reasons for separating this annotation into two levels, micro and macrosyntax, presented in Chapters 4 and 6. The particular focus on paradigmatic piles (coordination, lists, reformulation, disfluencies,… read more
Kahane, Sylvain, Paola Pietrandrea and Kim Gerdes 2019 Chapter 5. The annotation of list structuresRhapsodie: A prosodic and syntactic treebank for spoken French, Lacheret-Dujour, Anne, Sylvain Kahane and Paola Pietrandrea (eds.), pp. 69–95 | Chapter
This chapter presents phenomena we call “piles” or “lists”, which are characterized by the fact that a list of elements piles up in the same syntactic position. We therefore group the analysis of coordination together with the analysis of other phenomena such as reformulation, disfluency, partial… read more
Lacheret-Dujour, Anne, Paola Pietrandrea, Olivier Baude, Nicolas Obin, Anne-Catherine Simon and Atanas Tchobanov 2019 Chapter 1. Collecting data for the Rhapsodie treebank: Corpus design and ethical issuesRhapsodie: A prosodic and syntactic treebank for spoken French, Lacheret-Dujour, Anne, Sylvain Kahane and Paola Pietrandrea (eds.), pp. 7–20 | Chapter
This chapter is devoted to the development of the Rhapsodie repository. We describe the selection of data to be annotated, the principles used to document the data and discuss the theoretical assumptions underlying the Rhapsodie project. The aim was to provide a corpus to study the interface… read more
Lacheret-Dujour, Anne, Sylvain Kahane and Paola Pietrandrea 2019 Chapter 19. ConclusionRhapsodie: A prosodic and syntactic treebank for spoken French, Lacheret-Dujour, Anne, Sylvain Kahane and Paola Pietrandrea (eds.), pp. 365–368 | Chapter
Lacheret-Dujour, Anne, Sylvain Kahane and Paola Pietrandrea 2019 IntroductionRhapsodie: A prosodic and syntactic treebank for spoken French, Lacheret-Dujour, Anne, Sylvain Kahane and Paola Pietrandrea (eds.), pp. 1–6 | Chapter
Pietrandrea, Paola and Aline Delsart 2019 Chapter 16. Macrosyntax at work: Functions and distribution of macrosyntactic patterns in the Rhapsodie corpusRhapsodie: A prosodic and syntactic treebank for spoken French, Lacheret-Dujour, Anne, Sylvain Kahane and Paola Pietrandrea (eds.), pp. 285–314 | Chapter
In this chapter we conduct a quantitative analysis of the distribution of macrosyntactic structures in the Rhapsodie corpus. The analysis shows that there is a strong tendency to massively reuse only a small number of macrosyntactic patterns and that simple utterances predominate in the corpus. The… read more
Pietrandrea, Paola and Sylvain Kahane 2019 Chapter 6. Macrosyntactic annotationRhapsodie: A prosodic and syntactic treebank for spoken French, Lacheret-Dujour, Anne, Sylvain Kahane and Paola Pietrandrea (eds.), pp. 97–125 | Chapter
This chapter describes the macrosyntactic annotation of the Rhapsodie corpus, from the linguistic heritage to Rhapsodie’s own theoretical approach to macrosyntax. Macrosyntactic phenomena, such as dislocation, discourse markers, inserts, or parenthesis, are quite frequent in spoken French. The… read more
Pietrandrea, Paola, Sylvain Kahane, Anne Lacheret-Dujour and Frédéric Sabio 2014 The notion of sentence and other discourse units in corpus annotationSpoken Corpora and Linguistic Studies, Raso, Tommaso and Heliana Mello (eds.), pp. 331–364 | Article
The notion of sentence – as it is defined in syntactic, semantic, graphic and prosodic terms – is not a suitable maximal unit for the prosodic and syntactic annotation of spoken corpora. Still, this notion is taken as a reference in many syntactic and prosodic annotation systems. We present here… read more
Pietrandrea, Paola 2008 Certamente and sicuramente: Encoding dynamic and discursive aspects of commitment in ItalianCommitment, De Brabanter, Philippe and Patrick Dendale (eds.), pp. 221–246 | Article
Commitment should be understood as a dynamic and discursive category. This raises some important questions for the theory of grammar: to what extent do languages encode the dynamic and discursive aspects of commitment? At what level of analysis does this encoding take place? Which markers encode… read more
Antinoro Pizzuto, Elena and Paola Pietrandrea 2001 The notation of signed texts: Open questions and indications for further researchSign Transcription and Database Storage of Sign Information, Bergman, Brita, Penny Boyes Braem, Thomas Hanke and Elena Antinoro Pizzuto (eds.), pp. 29–45 | Article
This paper focuses on some of the major methodological and theoretical problems raised by the fact that there are currently no appropriate notation tools for analyzing and describing signed language texts. We propose to approach these problems taking into account the fact that all signed languages… read more
