Arabic Wordnet
The Arabic Wordnet is a lexical-semantic network that is structured along the same lines as the Princeton WordNet (lexical reference system) and the EuroWordNet.
In a wordnet, which is basically a semantic network, the different lexical categories of words (nouns, verbs,..) are organised into 'synsets' (sets of synonyms). Each synset represents a lexical concept and they can be linked by different types of relation (hyperonymy, antonymy, etc.). For obvious reasons, all wordnets resort to the same system of synset identification.
The Arabic wordnet contains 10,842 synsets and 22,407 words. The Suggested Upper Merged Ontology (SUMO) is used to link the AWN to previously developed wordnets.
This program is sponsored by DOI/REFLEX.
WordNet is a basic resource for computational linguistics purposes and language engineering applications (machine translation, IE, WSD, knowledge representation, etc.).
