A Large Coverage Verb Taxonomy for Arabic

Year: 2010
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: In this article I present a lexicon for Arabic verbs which exploits Levin's verb-classes (Levin, 1993) and the basic development procedure used by (Schuler, 2005).The verb lexicon in its current state has 173 classes which contain 4392 verbs and 498 frames providing information about verb root, the deverbal form of the verb, the participle, thematic roles, subcategorisation frames and syntactic and semantic descriptions of each verb.The taxonomy is available in XML format.It can be ported to MYSQL, YAML or JSON and accessed either in Arabic characters or in the Buckwalter transliteration.
