Bengali WordNet
The Bengali Wordnet (BWN) is a lexical-semantic network that is structured along the same lines as the Princeton WordNet (lexical reference system). The target size is 5,000 entries.
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.
It contains the most frequently occurring words in the Bangla News Corpus (see U-W0359) as well as other frequent words selected by linguists.
WordNet is a basic resource for computational linguistics purposes and language engineering applications (machine translation, IE, WSD, knowledge representation, etc.).
