We describe our work on the bilingual lexical database supporting the Bulgarian-Polish Online dictionary. The main software tools for the web-presentation of the dictionary are shortly described. We focus our special attention on the presentation of verbs, the richest from a specific characteristics viewpoint linguistic category in Bulgarian.
