Language Resources
The Impact Centre of Competence provides historical and named-entities lexica for the following languages. In addition, we offer access to the different corpora.
WHAT IS A LEXICON?
A lexicon is a structured, machine-usable repository of relevant linguistic knowledge about words in a language. A lexicon will contain historical variants (orthographical variants, inflected forms) and link them to a corresponding dictionary form in modern spelling (known as a ‘modern lemma’).
