Year: 2018

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Moroccan Darija is a variant of Arabic with many influences.Using the Open Multilingual WordNet (OMW), we compare the lemmas in the Moroccan Darija Wordnet (MDW) with the standard Arabic, French and Spanish ones.We then compared the lemmas in each synset with their translation equivalents.Transliteration is used to bridge alphabet differences and match lemmas in the closest phonological way.The results put figures on the similarity Moroccan Darija has with Arabic, French and Spanish: respectively 42.0%, 2.8% and 2.2%.
