Description
Résumé:This paper deals briefly with the necessity for the development of syntactic data bases in the Semitic languages. At the hand of three examples, taken from Hebrew, Arabic and Ugaritic, it is shown that the Semitic linguist has no reliable source for syntactic research other than the text itself, but, due to its size, relevant data is not readily obtainable. Computerised syntactic data bases are proposed as a solution. The data structure of such a data base is discussed, as well as certain aspects of the analysis and retrieval programmes. The use of such data bases as research instruments and in an information system is also briefly discussed.
