The gaming and linguistic data generating technique described herein provides an online multiplayer game that can generate linguistic data, such as, for example, monolingual paraphrase data or multilingual parallel data, as a by-product of the game. The game is designed along the lines of sketch-and-convey paradigm. The game can be played as follows. A phrase is chosen from a phrase corpus and is given to one player (the Drawer) who then conveys it to the other player (the Guesser) by drawing a picture of the phrase. The Guesser guesses at the components of the phrase either in the same language as the phrase or possibly in a different language. If the Guesser's guesses converge to the chosen phrase, this generates monolingual paraphrases (if the game is played in the same language), and parallel text (if the game is played between multilingual players or two monolingual players in different languages). |
