Time plays a critical role in how we reason about the world and define events and narratives. Historically most content analysis has focused on simple exact date identification, which misses the incredible amount of more abstract time conveying language in news coverage and ordinary speech that yields powerful insights into conceptualizations of global activities. We'd like to thank Robert Hogenraad for making available his incredible TIME Dictionary, which provides an exquisite look at the language of time and is now available in GCAM.
