This article describes a methodology that was developed to review Emocionário, a lexicon of emotion words in Portugese from Linguateca&#39;s AC/DC project. This first portion of the review was carried out in seven of the 24 groups of Emocionário, being them “Desespero”, “Esperança”, “Humildade”, “Pena”, “Satisfação”, “Saudade” and “Surpresa”. The methodology is then illustrated, making use of examples taken from the corpus itself for each of the steps. Some of the main changes are documented and discussed at the end.

ACL 2022

The Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL) is the premier international scientific and professional society for people working on computational problems involving human language, a field often referred to as either computational linguistics or natural language processing (NLP). 

This article describes a methodology that was developed to review Emocionário, a lexicon of emotion words in Portugese from Linguateca's AC/DC project. This first portion of the review was carried out in seven of the 24 groups of Emocionário, being them “Desespero”, “Esperança”, “Humildade”, “Pena”, “Satisfação”, “Saudade” and “Surpresa”. The methodology is then illustrated, making use of examples taken from the corpus itself for each of the steps. Some of the main changes are documented and discussed at the end.

This study presents a new version of the lexical decision test designed to capture the social appreciation of variable phonological phenomena [Freitag and Souza 2019]. The effects of lexical decision were tested in standard and non-standard variants of the phenomena of monophthongtion descending and increasing, denasalization of final unstressed nasal diphthong and palatalization of alveolar stops, in progressive and regressive environment, in a sample of 25 university students from Sergipe. The results reinforce what has already been identified in the previous study: stereotype and marker type variants are significantly associated with non-word; while the indicator variants do not show this relation.

Efeitos da variação linguística na decisão lexical

Apresentamos uma análise comparativa acerca da palatalização de
/t/ e /d/ em duas amostras independentes, e com tamanho distinto, compostas por dados de fala (n = 8.850) e de leitura em voz alta (n = 831) de estudantes da Universidade Federal de Sergipe. Controlamos as variáveis sociais deslocamento e tempo no curso, e as variáveis linguísticas contexto anterior, contexto posterior, tonicidade e sonoridade, com o objetivo de identificar se os efeitos condicionantes da palatalização da fala atuam na leitura em voz alta. Os resultados sinalizam que, mesmo em amostras distintas, o comportamento dos fatores sociais e linguísticos apresentam estabilidade na mudança e propagação da palatalização na comunidade.


Palatalização na fala e na leitura de universitários sergipanos

This work investigates the syntactic-semantic proprieties of the verb “falar” (to speak) of Brazilian Portuguese (BP) in a journalistic corpus and three BP verbal databases (VerbNet.Br, VerboWeb and Verbo-Brasil). The data demonstrate a polyvalence and complexity of “falar”. In addition, concerning the analysis of the databases, it was verified a need for manual reviews, made out by linguists, and/or expansions of the linguistic descriptions, especially when considering the relevance of constructions with the verb "falar" for different applications in the Natural Language Processing area

A propósito do verbo falar no português brasileiro: uma análise em corpus e em bases de dados verbais

Os provérbios são um tipo especial de unidades linguísticas que tem
sido amplamente ignorado pela comunidade de Processamento de Linguagem
Natural (PLN), apesar de levantarem desafios interessantes para o processamento.
Este artigo apresenta o procedimento de integração do Mínimo Paremiológico do Português no sistema STRING e a distribuição desses provérbios
mais usuais em três corpora distintos do português (europeu).

Provérbios portugueses usuais: distribuição em corpora

The annotation of informal texts within the Universal Dependencies framework requires two segmentation processes: definition of the relevant unity for syntactic analysis and identification of syntactic words. In this paper, we present the linguistic idiosyncrasies of DANTEStocks, a corpus of tweets from the financial market, written in Portuguese, and the general guidelines for their automatic segmentation. As such, this work contributes to a better understanding of linguistic aspects of tweets and the development of resources and tools for automatic processing of this subgenre of user-generated content.

Descrição Preliminar do Corpus DANTEStocks: Diretrizes de Segmentação para Anotação segundo Universal Dependencies

Apresentamos a instanciação que realizamos das diretrizes do modelo Universal Dependencies (UD) para a anotação de Numerais em português. Apresentamos as diferenças do conceito da classe de numerais na Nomenclatura Gramatical Brasileira e Portuguesa e nas diretrizes da UD. Apresentamos os principais problemas detectados . Os resultados da combinação das diretrizes da UD com as características dos numerais em português são apresentados em detalhes, com exemplos, juntamente com os argumentos que amparam cada decisão tomada. 


Descrição de numerais segundo modelo Universal Dependencies e sua anotação no português

Este trabalho apresenta uma proposta para representar computacionalmente as construções Transitiva Indireta, Transitiva Oblíqua e Bitransitiva
do Português Brasileiro, no âmbito do Constructicon da FrameNet Brasil.
Dessa forma, demonstra de que maneira as teorias irmãs da Semântica de Frames e da Gramática das Construções podem contribuir na busca por um modelo
de língua que alie forma e sentido em uma única representação.

Construções de Estrutura Argumental com Argumento Preposicionado: uma modelagem linguístico-computacional na FrameNet Brasil

Este trabalho objetiva apresentar a descrição e a modelagem linguístico-computacional das construções interrogativas QU- do Português brasileiro no Constructicon da FrameNet Brasil.

Modelagem de Construções Interrogativas QU- no Constructicon da FrameNet Brasil

Apresentamos a proposta de descrição e análise de dados verbais do português brasileiro presente no banco de dados VerboWeb. Os verbos foram agrupados e classificados de acordo com o arcabouço teórico-metodológico da Semântica Lexical, que assume que certas propriedades semânticas dos verbos determinam seu comportamento sintático. Mostramos como o banco de dados é estruturado e as generalizações que podemos fazer sobre o léxico verbal de nossa língua.

In this study, linguistic features were listed for classification of triples,based on a parallel corpus in Galician, Brazilian Portuguese (PT-BR) and European Spanish (EE). In the experiments, at the syntactic level, a relevant per-formance of features that offer greater difficulty to extract valid triples was ob-served, such as the corelated null object/subject and the verb-subject inversion,as well as relational triples that form ungrammatical sub-sentences. At the mor-phological level, it was observed that the grammatical class of the initial wordof each sub-sentence, especially when they are prepositions, were relevant forthe classification of the triples
