This paper outlines the creation of an open combined semantic lexicon as a resource for the study of lexical semantics in the Malay languages (Malaysian and Indonesian).It is created by combining three earlier wordnets, each built using different resources and approaches: the Malay Wordnet (Lim & Hussein 2006), the Indonesian Wordnet (Riza, Budiono & Hakim 2010) and the Wordnet Bahasa (Nurril Hirfana, Sapuan & Bond 2011).The final wordnet has been validated and extended as part of sense annotation of the Indonesian portion of the NTU Multilingual Corpus (Tan & Bond 2012).The wordnet has over 48,000 concepts and 58,000 words for Indonesian and 38,000 concepts and 45,000 words for Malaysian.
