Abstract

We consider temporal expressions formed by a noun of time reinforced by an adverb of time, in order to extend the range of annotation of temporal expressions. Fro this, we analyze some groups to build finite state automata to automatically determine such type of expressions. To determine the extent of annotation, we present a method for obtaining the most preferable variants from Internet. We analyze some groups to capture their meaning.
