Penn-Helsinki Parsed Corpus of Middle English (PPCME2)
The Penn-Helsinki Parsed Corpus of Middle English, second edition (PPCME2), the Penn-Helsinki Parsed Corpus of Early Modern English (PPCEME) and the Penn Parsed Corpus of Modern British English are syntactically annotated corpora of prose text samples of English from the indicated time periods. Their syntactic annotation (parsing) permits searching, not only for words and word sequences, but also for syntactic structure. The corpora are designed for the use of students and scholars of the history of English, especially the historical syntax of the language.
The PPCME2 text samples are based largely on the Middle English section of the Diachronic Part of the Helsinki Corpus of English Texts, with certain additions and deletions. However, the size of the samples is considerably larger. For the earliest Helsinki time period, all texts are exhaustively sampled. For later Helsinki time periods, two texts per period were expanded to 50,000 words. The remaining texts are represented by the Helsinki Corpus sample.
The main Helsinki time periods are M1-M4, each covering approximately one hundred years.
