The Diversity of Lexical Functions in Bulgarian and Russian: an Approach to Compatible Digital Comparative Lexicography
The Diversity of Lexical Functions in Bulgarian and Russian: an Approach to Compatible Digital Comparative Lexicography

Summary/Abstract: This paper presents an approach to the creation of Russian-Bulgarian digital dictionary of collocations using the apparatus of lexical functions. The project is aimed not only at the high-quality translation and word sense disambiguation but also at the cross-linguistic analysis and at comparing the semantics and compatibility of the words in Slavic languages (here: Russian and Bulgarian) by means of digital lexicographical data. Another important application is computer-assisted language learning: Bulgarian data can be incorporated in the educational project being developed for Russian and English at the Institute for Information Transmission Problems of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
