WordNet Spanish

This is a lexical-semantic network that has been developed in the EuroWordNet project. EWN includes wordnets for several European languages and each one of them is structured along the same lines as the Princeton WordNet (lexical reference system).

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.

WordNet is a basic resource for computational linguistics purposes and language engineering applications (machine translation, IE, WSD, knowledge representation, etc.).

Note that the Spanish wordnet, like the Hebrew, Romanian and Latin wordnets, is compatible with the MultiWordNet model.

The EuroWordNet Spanish is distributed through the ELRA catalogue http://catalogue.elra.info under the reference M0017.
