Marek Maziarz, Stan Śzpakowicz, Michał Kaliński · 2016
Adverbs are seldom well represented in wordnets.Princeton WordNet, for example, derives from adjectives practically all its adverbs and whatever involvement they have.GermaNet stays away from this part of speech.Adverbs in plWordNet will be emphatically present in all their semantic and syntactic distinctness.We briefly discuss the linguistic background of the lexical system of Polish adverbs.We describe an automated generator of accurate candidate adverbs, and introduce the lexicographic procedures which will ensure high consistency of wordnet editors' decisions about adverbs.lation hypo(gor ączkowo 1 , nerwowo 1 ), then, is an instance of hyponymy in plWordNet.Listing 1: Hyponymy.Modifier of intentional verbs.Jeżeli ktoś/coś robi coś x, to robi to y. Jeżeli ktoś/coś robi coś y, to niekoniecznie robi to x.'If someone/something does something x, they do it y.' 'If someone/something does something y, they do not necessarily do it x.' Listing 2: Hyponymy.Modifier of unintentional verbs.Jeżeli coś dzieje się x, to dzieje się y.Jeżeli coś dzieje się y, to niekoniecznie dzieje się x.'If something happens x, it happens y.' 'If something happens y, it does not necessarily happen x.' Listing 3: Hyponymy.Adjective modifier.Jeżeli ktoś/coś jest x jakiś, to jest też y jakiś.Jeżeli ktoś/coś jest y jakiś, to niekoniecznie jest x jakiś.'If someone/something is x so, they are also y so.' 'If someone/something is y so, they are not necessarily x so.' Listing 4: Hyponymy.Predicative adverb.Jeżeli jest x, to jest też y.Jeżeli jest y, to niekoniecznie jest x.
