This paper presents a method to automatically find meanings which should be but are not entered in thesaurus.In this paper, we use Bunrui-goi-hyou as the thesaurus.To find the noun n with the meaning lacking in Bunrui-goi-hyou, we applies our presented method which extracts idioms from a corpus.We use the clue that many idioms with the noun n are extracted through that method.We have experimented with a corpus which consists of 5 years' worth of articles from a Japanese economic newspaper.As a result, we found 177 types of lacking meanings.Furthermore, our method can find not only a deficiency of a meaning but also meanings which are not used or are specifically used in the corpus domain.
