The AUTOTYP database

AUTOTYP is a large-scale research program with goals in both quantitative and qualitative typology. This release contains the full raw data from the AUTOTYP databases along with metadata, aggregated datasets and aggregation scripts.

The AUTOTYP database (v1.1). https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6793367 <strong>Release 1.1.0 summary</strong> The main changes in this release are: A new CLDF export, kindly contributed by Robert Forkel Revamp of the verb synthesis datasets which has been renamed to<br> <code>MaximallyInflectedVerbSynthesis</code> (see below) Enhancements to <code>GrammaticalRelations</code> Important: this release introduces breaking changes to the Morphology module. Important changes are listed below. Refer to the changelog for a more detailed list. <strong>CLDF export</strong> A CLDF export of AUTOTYP database was one of the most requested features since the new release.<br> We are very thankful to Robert Forkel for writing the code that generates a CLDF dataset of<br> AUTOTYP data. Starting from AUTOTYP 1.1.0 there is a CLDF dataset in <code>data</code>. The accompanying<br> Python scripts used to generate this export can be found in the repository<br> autotyp/autotyp-cldf-scripts <strong>Revamp of verb synthesis datasets in the Morphology module</strong> We wanted to clarify that the verb synthesis dataset in the Morphology module describes<br> maximally inflected verb forms only rather than all attested verb forms. To make this more<br> obvious we have renamed the affected datasets to include the phrase <code>MaximallyInflected</code> as well as<br> updated the variable metadata to clarify this point. Thus: <code>VerbSynthesis</code> becomes <code>MaximallyInflectedVerbSynthesis</code> <code>VerbInflectionAndAgreementCountsByPosition</code> becomes <code>MaximallyInflectedVerbInflectionAndAgreementCountsByPosition</code> <code>VerbAgreementAggregatedByMarkerPosition</code> becomes <code>MaximallyInflectedVerbAgreementAggregatedByMarkerPosition</code> <code>VerbInflectionCategoriesAggregatedByMarkerPosition</code> becomes <code>MaximallyInflectedVerbInflectionCategoriesAggregatedByMarkerPosition</code> etc. This is a breaking change. <strong>Enhancements to <code>GrammaticalRelations</code></strong> Multiple new variables that describe properties of grammatical relations have been added to<br> <code>GrammaticalRelations</code> dataset. Please refer to the list of changes below.
