Re: Querying Biblical Texts
The second installment is here. It looks at morphologies and three different flavors of syntax trees.
Querying Biblical Texts: Part 2 - Morphologies and Syntax Trees
Part 3, of course, will query those syntax trees.

Re: Querying Biblical Texts
The third installment is here. It focuses on querying morphology:
Querying Biblical Texts: Part 3 - queries on morphology
The next post will start a series on querying syntax, leading up to queries related to Rikjsbaron’s chapter on the Greek Participle.

Re: Querying Biblical Texts
I can't get off the starting line. Which one of those is usable on Ubuntu 14.04.3?You can find an XQuery processor at any of these links:
- BaseX
- eXist
- Saxon-HE
- xDB
- Zorba

Re: Querying Biblical Texts
I am using all of these on Fedora 20, they should also work on Ubuntu. Do you want to work from the command line or from an integrated environment? BaseX might be the easiest to use if you like a GUI. It installs on Windows, Mac, and most Linux. Here's the instructions for Ubuntu.Stephen Hughes wrote:I can't get off the starting line.

I work under Gnome at present - not spectacular, but functional. I don't know about an XQuery processor - either Command line or GUI is fine so long as the search algorithms can be saved.
The link on your guide pages to BaseX was broken half an hour ago, and still now, with a 404 file not found error.

Ooops - I fixed the link. I also put a link into the previous post in this thread.Stephen Hughes wrote:I work under Gnome at present - not spectacular, but functional. I don't know about an XQuery processor - either Command line or GUI is fine so long as the search algorithms can be saved.

Re: Querying Biblical Texts
The fourth (and final) installment is here. It focuses on querying participles of various kinds:
Querying Biblical Texts: Part 4 - Syntax of Participles
This goes into some depth on how Micheal and I are generating lists of various kinds of participles for our talk Systematically Generating Examples from a Syntactic Treebank for Internalizing Language.
