In this paper, we propose a semi-automatic methodology for acquiring a French SIMPLE lexicon based on the morphological properties of complex words. This method combines the results of the French morphological analyzer DériF with information from general lexical resources and corpora, when available. It is evaluated on a set of neologisms extracted from Le Monde newspaper corpora.
