Metrical, morphosyntactic, and syntactic analysis of the Rigveda

The dataset contains: • the main data table, RV_data.csv, with morphosyntactic, syntactic and metrical information on each Rigvedic word form, and • a script, disticha.rmd, for the analysis of disticha in the main types of Rigvedic stanzas which were studied as an example for the application of the data table, resulting in the published article: Salvatore Scarlata and Paul Widmer, Syntactic evidence for metrical structure in Rigvedic stanzas, Indo-European Linguistics 13 (2025), 1-21, doi:10.1163/22125892-bja10041, issn: 2212-5892.

In addition the dataset contains: • a further data table, RV-polylex.csv, wherein all compounded word forms are analyzed, and • some ancillary basic scripts for linking the two tables respectively for simplified representations: join.r resp. pivot01–03.r. Finally, the dataset contains: • a data table, RV-polylexREJECTS.csv, containing words for which it was not possible to assess them as compounded
