Identification and Annotation of Body Part Multiword Expressions in Old Egyptian

Roberto Díaz Hernández


Abstract
This paper presents the preliminary results of an ongoing study on the diachronic and synchronic use of multiword expressions (MWEs) in Egyptian, begun when I joined the COST Action Universality, Diversity and Idiosyncrasy in Language Technology (UniDive, CA21167). It analyzes, as a case study, Old Egyptian body part MWEs based on lexicographic and textual resources, and its aim is both to open up a research line in Egyptology, where the study of MWEs has been neglected, and to contribute to Natural Language Processing studies by determining the rules governing the morpho-syntactic formation of Old Egyptian body part MWEs in order to facilitate the identification of other types of MWEs.
