Extension of the SpanishWordNet
Clara Soler, Constanza Padilla · 2004
WordNet divides adjectives in descriptives and relationals basically and they are represented in an enumerative way. The category was not introduced in EuroWordNet and Spanish adjectives in the SpanishWordNet are the translation of the English synsets. This paper describes a proposal of organizing and incorporating adjectives into the SpanishWordNet in terms of representing its polymorphic behaviour. The new organization would be made according to the adjectives taxonomy of MikroKosmos ontology. It results that the ontological approach can be used to explain adjectives polysemy. In the end a new adjectival classification appears in EuroWordNet, in terms of the three types of entities of the Top Ontology.
