BNC Sampler: XML editionJuly 31, 20081What is the BNC Sampler?The BNC Sampler is a subset of the British National Corpus (BNC). This document offers a shortintroduction to the BNC Sampler corpus, with an outline of the areas where the Sampler differs from theBNC XML Edition. Detailed information about the design and construction of the BNC can be foundin the Reference Guide for the British National Corpus (XML Edition) at http://www.natcorp.ox.ac.uk/XMLedition/URG/.The BNC Sampler consists of two collections of written and spoken material of about one millionwords each, originally compiled to mirror the composition of the full BNC as far as possible. The BNCSampler was initially used for a tagging enhancement project at Lancaster University. It was annotatedwith a more detailed set of part-of-speech tags than the BNC and the annotation was manually checkedand post-edited. The results of this tagging enhancement project fed into the development of the secondedition of the BNC (BNC World, 2001).The BNC Sampler is thus likely to be of interest to: those who wish to use a smaller corpus with equal amounts of written and spoken material ; those who want a resource with highly detailed and accurate part-of-speech annotation.1.1Composition of the BNC SamplerAs noted above, one motivation for the original design of the BNC Sampler was that it should reflectas far as possible the full variety of text types in the full BNC, even though the BNC itself was not yetcomplete at the time the texts were selected. The texts were chosen and classified according to the fullrange of selection criteria defined at the start of the BNC project, and thus form an interesting exampleof ‘balanced’ corpus design. The following tables demonstrate the composition of the Sampler withrespect to all of the original BNC design criteria.Size in KbyteSize in w-unitsSize in s-unitsText typeSpoken demographicSpoken context-governedWritten books and periodicalsWritten-to-be-spokenWritten 52 (24.77%)496852 (24.92%)888522 (44.57%)18121 (0.90%)96178 (4.82%)496852Spoken Texts1s-units52144 (41.06%)24174 (19.03%)44852 (35.32%)1056 (0.83%)4750 (3.74%)24174texts475169314184

The originaldocumentation for the SGML version is available from the BNC website at http://www.natcorp.ox.ac.uk/corpus/sampler/, and includes full information about the CLAWS part-of-speechtagging applied to the Sampler, including a description of the CLAWS system itself.There are several differences between the format of the BNC Sampler (in its second edition) and theBNC XML Edition.tagset for linguistic annotation As noted above, the BNC Sampler has been manually annotated witha more detailed tagset than the BNC XML Edition. More information about the tagset (CLAWS7) used in the sampler is available from the BNC website (http://www.natcorp.ox.ac.uk/corpus/sampler/guide C7.htm).lemmatization Unlike the BNC XML Edition (and BNC Baby), the BNC Sampler has not beenannotated with lemmatized forms of each word, nor does it include simplified part-of-speech tags(pos).tokenization In the BNC Sampler, words forming multi-word units are tagged as one wordtogether. In the BNC XML Edition, multi-word units are marked using a mw elementto enclose sequences of orthographic words, which are also tagged individually.Forexample, in the BNC Sampler the sequence ‘of course’ is marked up as follows: w type "RR" of course /w The multi-word unit is analyzed as an adverb and given one part-of-speech tag (RR). Inthe BNC XML Edition, however, the same sequence would be marked up as follows:5
3SOURCE TEXTS mw c5 "AV0" w c5 "PRF"hw "of" pos "PREP" of /w w c5 "NN1" hw "course"pos "SUBST" course /w /mw The multi-word unit is analyzed as an adverb (AV0) and marked using a mw element. Its twocomponent parts are analyzed separately, and each is annotated with a detailed part-of-speech code(in the c5 attribute), a headword (lemma) ( in the hw attribute) and a simplified part-of-speech code(in the pos attribute).structural markup There are several differences in the way XML markup has been applied between theBNC Sampler and the BNC XML Edition. The treatment of overlapping speech is different; theelements used to mark-up structural divisions are different; the value-ranges and names of someattributes have changed, many header elements have changed their names, etc. We do not itemizethese differences here, since the elements and attributes are fully documented in the complete UserReference Guides for the two corpora.Most of the discussion of XML-specific matters in the documentation for BNC Baby appliesequally to the XML version of the BNC Sampler. Most of the sample scripts provided however needmodification.3Source TextsBibliographic details1 of the files included in the BNC Sampler are as follows:[A7V] 8802 words from The Guardian, electronic edition of 1989-11-08: Foreign news pages.

Uses of XML XML data comes from many sources on the web: web servers store data as XML files databasessometimes return query results as XML webservices use XML to communicate XML is the de facto universal format for exchange of data XML languages are used for music, math, vector graphics popular use: RSS for news feeds & podcasts CSC443: Web Programming
