MY DGS – ANNIS makes the Public DGS Corpus available through the corpus query and visualization tool ANNIS. Due to the complex nature of the corpus, composing queries for advanced research questions can quickly become increasingly complicated. We present a Query Wizard which assists users in building valid queries for MY DGS – ANNIS. Complex queries are built up from smaller blocks, which can be linked to each other through context-sensitive connections. Blocks provide options specific to a given annotation tier and dynamically lead users through their construction while preventing the creation of invalid queries. Once completed, queries can be opened directly in MY DGS – ANNIS.
