  abstract  = {In this paper, we present the annotation challenges we have encountered when
	working on a historical language that was undergoing elaboration processes. We
	especially focus on syntactic ambiguity and gradience in Middle Low German,
	which causes uncertainty to some extent. Since current annotation tools
	consider construction contexts and the dynamics of the grammaticalization only
	partially, we plan to extend CorA - a web-based annotation tool for historical
	and other non-standard language data - to capture elaboration phenomena and
	annotator unsureness. Moreover, we seek to interactively learn morphological as
	well as syntactic annotations.},
