The value of this list is that, since everything is a noun, it may be used as a default POS tagger for these unusual words. 3 | 4 | `build_proper_names_list.py` shows how this file was made. `proper_names.txt` contains 40,683 unique, alphabetized words. 5 | 6 | # Important notes: 7 | 8 | * This list contains some words that are not proper nouns, and is currently being hand-checked to remove these. It is currently hand-checked to EOF. 9 | * Some processing artifacts remain in the text, esp forms w/ a trailing _ (underscore) character. These will be removed later via automatic processing. 10 | * Similarly, there are a number of doublets as a result of a lexeme + underscore + additional lexeme; e.g., 'Alexandro' vs 'Alexandro_erat'. 11 | * A certain number of forms with attached clitics (e.g., -que, -ve) are present in the corpus; the host lexemes of these clitics are often doublets of non-cliticized lexemes. 12 | * A number of apparent abbreviations have been left intact; e.g., 'Achil'. 13 | * There is a certain amount of orthographic doubling as the result of u/v or i/j spellings; e.g., 'Achivis' vs. 'Achiuis', or '-que' vs '-qve'. Similarly, in Greek words there are a number of doublets from variant y/u spellings; e.g., 'Amphitruone' vs. 'Amphitryone'. 14 | * Roman numeral notation has also been removed. 15 | 16 | 17 | # License 18 | Copyright (c) 2014 Kyle P.
