Linguistic Tree Constructor3.1.0

Linguistic Tree Constructor is a Windows educational program whose purpose is to help you build linguistic syntax trees from text documents.

User interface

The application lets you preview the syntax trees directly into the main window and access several preset options for making phrases and nodes.In addition, you are allowed to expand, collapse, select or deselect a node, pick a range of nodes, or select a single node and simultaneously deselect all others.

Importing/exporting options

Linguistic Tree Constructor lets you import data from plain text, GEN or LTCX file format. In addition, you can save the processed documents to LTCX file format so you can easily import the information in your future projects.

Generate linguistic syntax trees

You are given the freedom to make, delete or remove nodes, configure the colors of the various parts of the display, turn individual interlinear lines on and off, and zoom in or out of the trees.In addition, you can add labels for nodes in order to perform different types of analyses, such as Rhetorical Structure Theory, RRG operator-projection, Subject-Object-Predicate, or other discourse-level.Linguistic Tree Constructor is able to work with three different types of trees, namely generic, X-Bar, or RRG (Role and Reference Grammar), and lets you undo your actions, print the information, adjust the colors of the text lines, words in the trees, phrases and syntax nodes, delete words, and insert null elements.

Bottom line

All things considered, Linguistic Tree Constructor integrates a handy suite of features for helping you analyze text in terms of syntax trees. On the downside, it hasn’t been updated for a while, so you can make use of its capabilities especially if you are the owner of an old operating system, such as Windows 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista or 7.
