Mostafa Asi, Ali Reza Gholi Famian, D Aghajani · Language and Linguistics 語言暨語言學 · 2006

This article attempts to report on a project for building a WordNet for Persian adjectives. Three monolingual Persian dictionaries, as well as a Farsi linguistic corpus are employed here to extract required entries. This WordNet provides the semantic classes of adjectives, their synonyms, antonyms and frequency. The database management system employed here is MS SQL Server 2000. The system is implemented using Microsoft’s .NET Framework in Visual C# language and is developed in both desktop and web-based platforms. It allows the end-user to export the results of a specific query, both in Persian and Latinized alphabets, into a CSV or XML file for further reference.
