ExperimentData

Julia Bettinger, Anna Hätty, Michael Dorna, Sabine Schulte im Walde

The dataset contains difficulty ratings for 1,030 German closed noun compounds extracted from domain-specific texts for do-it-yourself (DIY), cooking and automotive. It includes two-part compounds for cooking and DIY, and two- to four-part compounds for automotive. The compounds were identified in text using the Simple Compound Splitter (Weller-Di Marco, 2017); a subset was filtered and balanced for frequency and productivity criteria as basis for manual annotation and fine-grained interpretation. The final dataset was annotated with ratings from 20 annotators.
