Abstract

With the building of larger sign language corpora tagging, handling and analysing large amounts of data reach a new level of complexity. Efficiency and interpersonal consistency in tagging are relevant issues as well as procedures and structures to identify and tag relevant linguistic units and structures beyond and above the manual sign level. We present and discuss problems and possible solution approaches (focussing on the working environment of iLex) of how to deal with multi-unit structures and more specifically multi-sign lexemes in annotation and lexicon building.
