The semantic classification of adjectives in the Bulgarian Wordnet: Towards a multi class approach
The semantic classification of adjectives in the Bulgarian Wordnet: Towards a multi class approach

Summary/Abstract: The paper presents an attempt at semantic classification of adjectives in the Bulgarian wordnet. Although designed for the Bulgarian wordnet, the classification can be applied to other wordnets which are developed in parallel to the Princeton WordNet. The classification relies on information that is already available in WordNet from other synsets (noun, verb, and other adjective synsets) that are linked to the adjective synsets via lexicosemantic relations — including their semantic classes, as well as definitions and usage examples. The first stage of the work was already presented at the workshop “Challenges for WordNets” within the conference “Language, Data and Knowledge 2017”. The continuation of the effort as described in this article, covers a proposal for introducing additional semantic classes to the adjective synsets (if applicable).
