Title Introducing the Shogakukan Corpus Query System and the Shogakukan Language Toolbox
Abstract Since the British National Corpus has detailed bibliographical and demographic information as well as part-of-speech tags encoded in XML, there is high demand for sophisticated search functions using above-mentioned markups and tags as search keys. Current search software available, however, has not effectively utilized this feature. Shogakukan has developed two systems with which lexicographers can investigate word behaviour for better dictionary making. In this demonstration, we would like to introduce these two systems: the Shogakukan Corpus Query System (SCQS), which is used for on-line searches, and the Shogakukan Language Toolbox (SLTB), which is used for off-line searches using batch files. Both systems are based on a database, which has the Corpus Query Language at the front-end. This Corpus Query Language is very useful for flexibly writing annotation as search conditions. These two systems can be accessed from conventional Internet browsers.
