This project is an extension of Dirk Roorda's tree-writing grammar of Biblical Hebrew sentences in the BHSA corpus.
The present project is designed to format the BHSA syntax trees into Role and Reference Grammar (RRG)-like trees for the purpose of creating a database of RRG-trees as part of the Düsseldorf University-based TreeGraSP research project.
The BHSA2RRG formats the BHSA syntax trees in two significant ways:
- Represents the Hebrew text in phonological script (based on the Text-Fabric phono-package)
- Segmentates words with several referring morphemes into seperate constituents (leaves)
