摘要：Many English Corpus Linguistics projects reported in ICAME Journal and elsewhere
involve grammatical analysis or tagging of English texts (eg Atwell 1983,
Leech et al 1983, Booth 1985, Owen 1987, Souter 1989a, O’Donoghue 1991,
Belmore 1991, Kytö and Voutilainen 1995, Aarts 1996, Qiao and Huang 1998).
Each new project has to review existing tagging schemes, and decide which to
adopt and/or adapt. The AMALGAM project can help in this decision, by providing
descriptions and analyses of a range of tagging schemes, and an internetbased
service for researchers to try out the range of tagging schemes on their
own data.
