With rapidly growing Arabic online sources aimed to encourage people’s discussions concerning personal, public or social issues (
news, blogs, forums
…), there is a critical need in development of computational tools for the Enunciative Modalities analysis (
attitude,
opinion, commitment…
). We present a new system that identifies and categorizes quotations in Arabic texts and proposes a strategy to determine whether a given speaker’s quotation conveys some enunciative modalities and potentially its evaluation by the enunciator. Our system enables two query types search for keywords within the “categorized” quotations: searching for keywords in the part potentially containing the reported speech source (
the reporting clause
) or searching for keywords in the part concerning the topic (
the reported clause
). The annotation is performed with a rule-based system using the reporting markers’ meaning. We applied our system to process a corpus of Arabic newspaper articles and we obtained promising results for the evaluation.
