Semantically tagged Finnish parliament discussions 1991-2015

<strong>Semantically tagged Finnish parliament discussions 1991-2015</strong> The original data is this (Rauh et al, 2017): https://dataverse.harvard.edu/dataset.xhtml?persistentId=doi:10.7910/DVN/E4RSP9 We have imported the raw text out of the original data set without speaker and party tags. The Finnish text has been first tagged with UD2 parser using the Mylly service of the Language Bank of Finland. After UD2 parse, semantic tags have been added to the text with FiST (Kettunen, 2019). <strong>Output form</strong> # newdoc # newpar # sent_id = 1 # text = Arvoisa herra puhemies! Arvoisa arvoisa Z99 amod herra#herra#Noun#S2.2m S9 compound:nn puhemies#puhemies#Noun#G1.1/S2 root ! PUNCT The output consists of the 1) token word form of the text, 2) lemma of the token, 3) POS, 4) semantic tag and 5) UD2 grammatical relation of the word in the sentence. Our semantic tagger does not resolve ambiguity. If the lexeme has multiple possible semantic tags, they are all included in the output (e.g., herra#herra#Noun#<strong>S2.2m S9</strong> compound:nn). Slash notation in the semantic tags (e.g., puhemies#puhemies#Noun#<strong>G1.1/S2</strong>) indicates that the word can belong to two or more categories (Löfbeg, 2017). If the semantic category of the word is not recognized, the word is tagged with Z99. The data consists of 4 036 269 sentences and ca. 65.247 million words. Lexical coverage of FiST for the data is 86.05 %, i.e. 86% of the words are known for the tagger and marked with a semantic tag. <strong>References</strong> Kettunen, Kimmo (2019).
