A European Portuguese corpus annotated for verbal idioms

Le résumé fourni par la source

This paper presents the construction of VIDiom-PT, a corpus in European Portuguese annotated for verbal idioms (e.g.'O Rui bateu a bota' (lit."Rui hit the boot") "Rui died").This linguistic resource aims to support the development of systems capable of processing such constructions in this language variety.To assist in the annotation effort, two tools were built.The first allows for the detection of possible instances of verbal idioms in texts, while the second provides a graphical interface for annotating them.This effort culminated in the annotation of a total of 5,178 instances of 747 different verbal idioms in more than 200,000 sentences in European Portuguese.A highly reliable inter-annotator agreement was achieved, using Krippendorff's alpha for nominal data (0.869) with 5% of the data independently annotated by 3 experts.Part of the annotated corpus is also made publicly available.
