Lematización de los datos de CODEA y su utilización en análisis cuantitativos sobre la eñe y la hache muda.

Abstract

In this article we will explain a method of lemmatization of Spanish old documents using the data of «CODEA» Corpus de Documentos Espanoles Anteriores a 1800 (Sanchez-Prieto et al., 2009) and the analysis tool «LYNEAL» ( Letras y Numeros en Analisis Linguisticos ). Our goal is to present the simplest possible method of lemmatization, easy to perform with high degree of accuracy. Next, we will expose two examples of its use in the historical study of Spanish spelling: on the ene and the silent hache.
