我们报告了一个注释圣经文本的项目，以创建一个对齐的多语言圣经语料库，用于语言学研究，特别是计算语言学，包括自动创建和评估翻译词典和语义标记的文本。该项目的产出将使研究人员能够利用比以前更广泛的语言的并行翻译，以相对较少的努力提供一个语料库，其中包含仔细的翻译和近句子水平的可靠对齐。我们讨论了文本的性质，我们的注释过程中，初步和计划使用的语料库，以及相关方面的语料库编码标准（CES）与此语料库。我们还提出了一个定量的比较与词典和语料库资源，为现代英语，证实了相关的语料库研究对当今的语言。
We report on a project to annotate biblical texts in order to create an aligned multilingual Bible corpus for linguistic research, particularly computational linguistics, including automatically creating and evaluating translation lexicons and semantically tagged texts. The output of this project will enable researchers to take advantage of parallel translations across a wider number of languages than previously available, providing, with relatively little effort, a corpus that contains careful translations and reliable alignment at the near-sentence level. We discuss the nature of the text, our annotation process, preliminary and planned uses for the corpus, and relevant aspects of the Corpus Encoding Standard (CES) with respect to this corpus. We also present a quantitative comparison with dictionary and corpus resources for modern-day English, confirming the relevance of this corpus for research on present day language.
