Semantic Modeling in Morpheme-based Lexica for Greek

A Machine Readable Dictionary (MRD or Lexicon) can be designed as a large-scale lexical database, having the task of supporting many different applications such as morphological, syntactic and semantic processing, information retrieval, machine translation, educational tools, etc. Regardless of how different these applications may be, they need a comprehensive lexical database to rely on, since...

1 On metalinguistic comparatives and negation in Greek

In this paper, we identify a paradigm of metalinguistic comparatives in Greek headed by the preposition para. Para clauses are lexically distinct from other comparatives clauses in Greek (headed by apo, apoti). Building on earlier intuitions, we propose a semantics of metalinguistic MORE as a contrast between two propositions in terms of how appropriate of preferred they are by some individual....

Transforming Lexica as Trees

Our work is motivated by the problem of merging one or more lexica into one lexicon. Lexica, lexicon schemas, and lexicon transformations are all seen as particular kinds of trees.
