From linguistic annotation in multilingual corpora to the annotation of language contact phenomena: the Clapoty Project

Taking examples of our ANR CLAPOTY Project (Towards a multi-level, typological and computer-assisted analysis of contact-induced language change), we will illustrate how difficult and counter-productive it can be to annotate languages in multilingual corpora and mention some solutions we are experimenting, annotating and analyzing remarkable language contact phenomena both at morphosyntactic, discursive and interactional levels.
