The Sketch Engine
Abstract
Word sketches are one-page automatic, corpus-based summaries of a word's
grammatical and collocational behaviour. They were first used in the
production of the Macmillan English Dictionary and were presented at Euralex
2002. At that point, they only existed for English. Now, we have developed
the Sketch Engine, a corpus tool which takes as input a corpus of any
language and a corresponding grammar patterns and which generates word
sketches for the words of that language. It also generates a thesaurus and
'sketch differences', which specify similarities and differences between
near-synonyms
