Leaving No Stone Unturned When Identifying and Classifying Verbal Multiword Expressions in the Romanian Wordnet

Verginica Barbu Mititelu, Maria Mitrofan · 2019

We present here the enhancement of the Romanian wordnet with a new type of information, very useful in language processing, namely types of verbal multiword expressions.All verb literals made of two or more words are attached a label specific to the type of verbal multiword expression they correspond to.These labels were created in the PARSEME Cost Action and were used in the version 1.1 of the shared task they organized.The results of this annotation are compared to those obtained in the annotation of a Romanian news corpus with the same labels.Given the alignment of the Romanian wordnet to the Princeton WordNet, this type of annotation can be further used for drawing comparisons between equivalent verbal literals in various languages, provided that such information is annotated in the wordnets of the respective languages and their wordnets are aligned to Princeton WordNet, and thus to the Romanian wordnet.
