Lexikoneintraege fuer deutsche Adverbien (Dictionary Entries for German   Adverbs)
  Modifiers in general, and adverbs in particular, are neglected categories in linguistics, and consequently, their treatment in Natural Language Processing poses problems. In this article, we present the dictionary information for German adverbs which is necessary to deal with word order, degree modifier scope and other problems in NLP. We also give evidence for the claim that a classification according to position classes differs from any semantic classification.
