Abstract

In this paper we describe the methodology and evaluation of the expansion of Galnet - the Galician wordnet - using a multilingual Bible through lexical alignment and semantic annotation. For this experiment we used the Galician, Portuguese, Spanish, Catalan and English versions of the Bible. They were annotated with part-of-speech and WordNet sense using FreeLing. The resulting synsets were aligned, and new variants for the Galician language were extracted. After manual evaluation the approach presented a 96.8% accuracy.
