- Abstract
The present study investigates the annotation of Kannada additive constructions based on Ancorra annotation scheme/ guidelines. Ancorra annotation scheme is an annotation scheme based on Paninian Grammar Formalism, which is developed to annotate Indian languages. It makes easy to annotate Indian languages and said to be an extensive application on both free word-order languages and positional languages. It can be placed in Dependency approach, one of the syntactic approaches, which currently became a mainstream research area in both linguistics and computer science disciplines. Additive constructions are coordinating constructions that use 'and' in English sentences. In Kannada, other than conjunct words such as mattu and hāgu 'and', other similar constructions use comma and alternatively the inclusive clitic 'ū' etc. to indicate additive constructions. The main aim is to identify various issues while annotating the additive constructions in the Kannada language. The present study of Kannada additive constructions is based on a corpus of nearly hundred annotated sentences. The purpose of the article is an attempt to exhibit the annotation of the additive conjuncts and follow the labels that have given in Ancorra guidelines. The article presents the application that extends the Paninian Grammar Formalism to Kannada.
