Description
Summary:This paper deals with problems related to discourse analysis within the framework of corpus linguistics, through a linguistic study dealing with procedurality in discourse. The fact that the study does not concern a specific lexical item makes it difficult to collect data without any predefined idea, in other words without introducing a bias in the study. The paper proposes a method to solve these problems, involving several annotators on the same texts and merging their proposals in order to get an objective unified annotation. We show that this step is a real part of the overall linguistic analysis.
