Title Lexicon and Grammar in Bulgarian FrameNet
Authors Svetla Koeva
Abstract In this paper, we report on our attempt at assigning semantic information fromthe English FrameNet to lexical units in the Bulgarian valency lexicon. Thepaper briefly presents the model underlying the Bulgarian FrameNet(BulFrameNet): each lexical entry consists of a lexical unit; a semantic framefrom the English FrameNet, expressing abstract semantic structure; agrammatical class, defining the inflexional paradigm; a valency framedescribing (some of) the syntactic and lexical-semantic combinatory properties(an optional component); and (semantically and syntactically) annotatedexamples. The target is a corpus-based lexicon giving an exhaustive account ofthe semantic and syntactic combinatory properties of an extensive number ofBulgarian lexical units. The Bulgarian FrameNet database so far contains uniquedescriptions of over 3 000 Bulgarian lexical units, approx. one tenth of themaligned with appropriate semantic frames, supports XML import and export andwill be accessible, i.e., displayed and queried via the web.
