General design information

Lexicon population

The Simple lexicon in its final form includes 10.000 semantic units from the categories of nouns, adjectives and verbs. These units correspond to a subset of the Parole lexicon, which currently includes morphological and syntactic information for 20.000 lemmas.

For the population of the Greek Simple lexicon, the following factors have been taken into consideration:

wide coverage of the template types,

selection of lemmas to be encoded only from those present in the Parole lexicon,

encoding of the most frequent lemmas,

encoding of the lemmas represented in the set of Basic Concepts,

encoding of the most important readings of the selected lemmas,

lexicon closure (i.e. all semantic units that are present in the Simple lexicon participating in a certain relation must also be fully encoded) within certain conditions.

The starting point for building the Simple lexicon is supplied by the set of Basic Concepts as provided by the Specifications Group. The Greek team has transferred the Basic Concepts into the Greek language. In this task, the aim was to select for each concept the prototypical lemma, taking into consideration two more points:

presence of the prototypical lemma in the Parole lexicon,

selection of a single word lemma, given that the Greek Parole lexicon does not contain compounds.

These two conditions could not always be satisfied. In this case, the relevant Basic Concepts have not been encoded in the Greek Simple lexicon.

Therefore, for each grammatical category, nouns and verbs, the initial set of 462 clustered Basic Concepts for Nouns and 199 for Verbs (English version) gave rise to 306 distinct lemmas of nouns and 150 distinct lemmas of verbs in Greek, which form the first source for the population of the Simple lexicon.

The Greek Simple lexicon finally includes 479 Semantic Units from this set of Basic Concepts; these, however, correspond to more Basic Concepts, since we have further merged some concepts, when their meanings were considered close enough in the Greek language to be coded as one Semantic Unit.

In addition, responding to the criterion of "wide coverage", a list of lemmas is selected for each template type. The selection of the lemmas is based on the frequency criterion, i.e. for each template type we select the most frequent lemmas from the Parole lexicon. It is important to stress that corpus frequency is derived from the Parole corpus, and that it refers to lemma frequency and not to sense frequency.

Finally, a third source for the lexicon population is the list of "dummy" semantic units that arises from the encoding of the first two sets of lemmas. Encoding the various readings of a lemma requires the encoding of its relations to other semantic units. Given the lexicon closure criterion, we have tried to fully encode all the target semantic units, provided they are already morphologically and syntactically encoded in Parole. However, this criterion was not entirely met, since the criterion of wide coverage of template types was considered more important and preference was given to encoding different readings rather than encoding "dummy" entries.

Coverage and completeness

Coverage and completeness of the lexicon refers to two aspects:

full encoding of the semantics of each lemma and, for each reading, full encoding of all the obligatory data for discrimination,

encoding of all the lemmas that are present in the lexicon, i.e. encoding of the target semantic units participating in a relation.

Our original aim was to fully encode the lemmas that have been selected in order to get the full representation of the semantics of each lemma, imposing only two conditions on this aim:

not all readings of the lemma are to be encoded : metaphorical readings are excluded; thus, the semantic units encoded for each lemma correspond roughly to the senses included also in the dictionaries of Modern Greek

each semantic unit should comprise all information that is deemed necessary for its distinction; our general principle consists in encoding only what is necessary and linguistically relevant for sense discrimination. At the same time, we avoid encoding "non-distinctive" and "encyclopaedic" semantic relations, especially if they point to dummy semantic units that cannot be encoded in the Simple lexicon.

However, in order to speed up the encoding process, this criterion is considered a secondary priority. This means that our attention was shifted to locating quickly lemmas having senses for a particular template type, and encoding them, instead of exhausting all the senses of a lemma. Still, the major senses of a given lemma have been encoded.

Use of background resources

No computational semantic lexica exist for Modern Greek; therefore, for the construction of the Simple lexicon in what concerns sense discrimination and gloss writing, two large and one medium size Greek dictionaries (in printed format) are being consulted.

Current lexicon contents

Table of full and dummy SemU's

The Greek lexicon currently includes in total 10.009 semantic units and 1079 dummy units that have arisen from the semantic relations encoded for the full SemU's.

	Number of SemU's
Encoded SemU's	10009
Dummy SemU's	1079

Table of Syntactic Units encoded in Simple

The 10.009 full Semantic Units of the current Simple lexicon correspond to 5.748 morphological units, which have been encoded as 7.341 syntactic units in the Parole lexicon. Not all of these syntactic units have yet been encoded at the semantic level, as they may correspond to senses that have not yet been treated. Only 6.464 of them have been encoded at the semantic level.

Semantic encoding

The process of semantic encoding has been implemented in two main phases :

The semantic typing of SynU’s included in the Parole lexicon. During this phase our aim was to identify the entries to be encoded under the ontology of the concrete and abstract entities (events not included). We proceeded in two ways :

Template assignment to the 3.000 most frequent SynU’s.

Additional template assignment for some entries from the full list of the Parole nouns sorted by frequency in order to ensure that all templates will be covered to a satisfactory degree; for this reason, a minimum of 40 entries per template type has been conventionally set. However, this minimum has not been attained for certain templates, e.g. micro-organisms, given the restricted number of entries these templates include in general.

Further template assignment based on morphological and syntactic criteria, irrespective of the frequency criterion, in order to ensure quick identification of candidate semantic units. This mode of work was mainly explored for the template assignment of events and adjectives.

Actual semantic encoding of the identified SynU’s on the basis of groups of template types of the same "family" (e.g. all entries belonging to the template Human and its subtemplates). This approach ensures consistency and systematicity during codification and facilitates checking over the information of templates.

Criteria for Syntax-Semantics linking

The Syntax-Semantics linking is represented at the CorrespSynUSemU object, which is embedded in the SynU. The Correspondence object included in the CorrespSynUSemU determines the type of linking between syntactic positions and semantic arguments.

SynU- SemU relations

Three linking relations between SynU’s and SemU’s, depending on the number of SynU's and SemU's linked for each MuS, have been observed up to now.

One to one : when one SynU is linked to one SemU. That means that the SynU has only one meaning.

In the simplest case, the SynU is assigned one syntactic description and therefore one CorrespSynUSemU object. We distinguish between two cases :

Non-predicative SemU’s, i.e. entries that have no complements at the syntactic level and no arguments at the semantic level : these are not linked to any predicative structure and they have no Correspondence in the CorrespSynUSemU.

<SynU

id="trapezi"

description="Nnull">

<CorrespSynUSemU

targetsemu="SEMUtrapezi"></SynU>

Predicative SemU’s, i.e. entries that have at least one filled position at syntax projected onto the semantics. These are linked to the relevant predicate, according to the guidelines, and bear information on the Correspondence object; the appropriate value of the Correspondence relies on the number of complements at the syntactic level which are present at the semantic level.

<SynU

id="mytera"

description="Ncomplgenopt">

<CorrespSynUSemU

targetsemu="SEMUmytera"

correspondence="ISOmonovalent"></SynU>

In more complex cases, the SynU is assigned two syntactic descriptions linked through a frameset; for both these descriptions, the meaning does not change, and the SynU is linked to one SemU. Reciprocal alternation is such a case. For these entries, the syntactic unit is linked to the same predicate, and two correspondences are used in order to link the two syntactic positions to the appropriate arguments :

<SynU

id="sunoreuo"

description="VNomnpOblppme"

framesetl="fsunoreuo">

<CorrespSynUSemU

targetsemu="SEMUsunoreuo"

correspondence= "ISObivalent">

<CorrespSynUSemU

targetsemu="SEMUsunoreuo"

correspondence= "P0toArg0P0toArg1"

description= "VNomnpplu"></SynU>

One to many : when one SynU is linked to more than one SemU’s.

In the simple case, one SynU has more than one different meanings. This case applies to different readings of either truly polysemous or systematically polysemous lemmas.

<SynU

id="vivlio"

description="Nnull">

<CorrespSynUSemU

targetsemu="SEMUvivlio1">

<CorrespSynUSemU

targetsemu="SEMUvivlio2">  </SynU>

In more complex cases, the SynU is assigned two syntactic descriptions which are linked through a frameset but have a different meaning; therefore, the SynU is linked to two different SemU’s. Such an example is provided by the causative/inchoative alternation.

In these cases, the SynU is linked to two CorrespSynUSemU objects, with two SemUs and two correspondences to two different predicates; that is, we have decided to link each semantic unit to a different predicate :

<SynU

id="kleino"

description="VNomnpAccnpobl"

frameset="fanavo">

<CorrespSynUSemU

targetsemu="SEMUkleino1"

correspondence="ISObivalent">

<CorrespSynUSemU

targetsemu="SEMUkleino2"

correspondence="ISOmonovalent"

description="VactNomnp">

Many to one : when more than one SynU’s of the same MuS is linked to one SemU, i.e. different syntactic descriptions have the same meaning.

Up to now, we have met such examples from SynU's that have been split due to syntax constraints (e.g. presence of one complement affecting the way another complement is realised); for instance, deverbal nouns such as κατοχή [possession], are encoded as two SynU's : one with description "Nsubjapoobjgen" - with optional subject PP [apo] and an obligatory object NP [genitive]- and a second one with "Nnull". We have opted for this solution as the subject position is realised only when there is an object; therefore, a second description is required, where the object is not realised as well. We have not used the frameset mechanism to link such cases, since we have decided to use framesets only for cases referred to in the bibliography as "alternations".

Types of Correspondence

We have used three types of Correspondence depending on the nature of mapping between syntactic positions and arguments :

ISO(morphic) when there is a "direct" mapping between positions and arguments.

CROSSED when there is a "crossed" mapping between positions and arguments.

ALT(ernation) when there is a mapping of one position to many arguments; this is the case of certain types of alternation (e.g. reciprocal alternation, coordinated objects).

We have decided not to use AUG(mented) correspondence, i.e. when the semantic representation includes "shadow" arguments.

Subtypes of Correspondence used include:

Correspondence	Comment	Example
ISOmonovalent	Isomorphic mapping for unary predicates	μητέρα [mother]
ISObivalent	Isomorphic mapping for bivalent predicates	απουσιάζω [be absent]
ISOtrivalent	Isomorphic mapping for trivalent predicates	κρατάω/ώ [keep]
ISOtetravalent	Isomorphic mapping for tetravalent predicates	μεταβιβάζω [transfer]
CROSSED0toArg1	crossed mapping for predicates with two arguments where P0 goes to Arg1	deverbal nouns with object, e.g. κατοχή [possession]
CROSSED0toArg2	crossed mapping for predicates with three arguments where P0 goes to Arg2	deverbal nouns with adverbial, e.g. σπουδαστής [student]

Criteria for assigning Domain Features

Assignment of the Domain values has followed in most cases the recommendations given in the Linguistic Specifications D2.1. The criteria for the assignment of the Domain values can be traced as follows:

Domain values correspond to the subject field of the text in which a given SemU is more likely to appear.

e.g. the SemU αρνί [lamb_leather] has been assigned the Domain value "Fashion" since it has been considered the most appropriate domain value to which this sense is more relevant.

In case that there are more than one suitable domains for a SemU, we distinguish the following cases :

When two or more domains under different nodes of the LEXIQUEST hierarchy are available, we have opted for assigning both of them.

e.g. the SemU κρασί [wine] has been assigned two Domain values "ENOLOGY" and "DRINK", as we have considered that this SemU may appear in texts of both specialised domains.

When a general and a more specific domain are available, we have opted for encoding only the specific one.

e.g. under the template Social_status, the SemU’s can be assigned either the more general Domain "Politics_and_Government" or a more specific one. For instance, the SemU βασιλιάς [king] has been assigned the more specific Domain "Monarchy"

When two or more specific domains under the same general domain are available, we have opted for assigning the general one.

e.g. the SemU τούβλο [brick] could have been assigned the specific Domains "Civil_engineering" and "Masonry", but instead we opted for the general Domain "Construction".

Following the workshop decision, the Domain "General" is applied to all the SemU's. On the other hand, if a SemU cannot be attributed to any specific domain, it is filled only with the value "General".

e.g. the SemU άνδρας [man] has been assigned the value "General" as regards the Domain information.

Criteria for assigning Semantic Class and Template Types

Criteria for assigning semantic class

Information on semantic class and other semantic features aims at providing a more refined and accurate classification of a SemU within a template. In most cases, we follow the guidelines regarding the selection of the appropriate semantic class, although for events and adjectives a consistent and complete ontology for semantic classes is not provided. During the assignment of semantic classes we came across the following cases in which we should decide upon a methodology for the consistent encoding of the semantic class :

When there are two semantic classes available, one general and one more specific, we opt for the specific one.

e.g. several animals typed as earth-animals within the template system have been assigned the more specific semantic class "Mammal" instead of the more general "Animal", in order to describe better the distinctive nature of the encoded sense.

When two semantic classes are available and they are at the same level of ontology, we have set criteria on whether we use both of them or just one. For instance, in the template Natural_Substance, two semantic classes are recommended at the guidelines, "Substance" and "Matter". In this case, we have decided to encode the semantic class "Substance" for all entries, while we have decided to encode both values when the encoded SemU is used as material.

e.g. the SemU ξύλο [wood] has been assigned both values at the semantic class slot, since the semantic unit wood is a substance which can be used as material.

Specifically, for events, only one semantic class is encoded for each template type, irrespective of whether it was intended for verbs ("_classificateur_de_verbe") or for nouns ("_classificateur_de_nom"). As for adjectives, semantic classes have also been borrowed from verbs and nouns, when possible, in order to fill in the gap of the adjectives' semantic classes.

Criteria for assigning template type

The Template System has two aims :

Representation of the semantic type of the SemU and placement of the SemU in the Simple semantic hierarchy.

Determination of the distinctive semantic features and relations relevant to nodes of this hierarchy.

The assignment of a given template to a SemU is based on the following criteria :

The type-defining semantic features and relations included in this template.

Appropriate tests that reflect the linguistic knowledge about a given word sense or a class of senses.

As regards nouns, the selectional restrictions imposed by verbs or deverbal nouns that may head them.

e.g. the assignment of the Template type "Water-Animal" to the SemU σολομός [salmon] has been decided according

to the type-defining feature "Habitat={water}" of this template,

to the linguistic test applied, "X lives under water", and also

to the fact that this SemU can be the object of the verb ψαρεύω [to fish], which selects for a living entity that lives in the water.

As regards verbs and deverbal nouns, their predicative structure.

e.g. the template type "Stative_location" has been assigned to the SemU μένω [stay], taking as an indication its semantic structure, i.e the fact that it takes a Location argument, in which the Agent argument is found or can be found.

It should be noted that we have used template types included in the Recommended ontology, which provides a more granular organisation of the SemU’s, when it was considered that a more specific template reflects better the distinctive status of a given SemU.

In general, we have assigned upper nodes in the template hierarchy, not only to general entities but also to more specific ones, when the meaning of the SemU was considered too underspecified to be classified under a specific template or when a SemU could be assigned more than one specific templates under the same node. For instance, the SemU’s λιμάνι [port] and αγορά [market], which could be classified either as "Artifactual_area"/"Building" or "Area" depending on whether they are artificial or physical entities, were assigned the more general Template type "Location", overcoming thus the problem of multiple subtyping.

Language specific typing

In general, the guidelines and linguistic tests suggested by the Specifications Group for typing have been the basis upon which we have assigned templates to specific entries. For certain templates, we have elaborated a further set of fine-grained criteria in order to be more consistent. We give below for each template type that we have worked with the criteria used.

Telic

Words with an intense sense of telicity (στόχος [aim], σκοπός [purpose]).

Agentive

General words denoting agentive (αιτία [cause], κίνητρο [motive], παράγοντας [factor]).

Cause

Mainly verbs denoting in general a strong agentive sense (προκαλώ [cause], κάνω [make], προξενώ [induce]). If the enent they cause can be further specified, they are assigned a more specific template (e.g. cause_aspectual, cause_change_of_value, etc.).

Constitutive

Words denoting manner (τρόπος [way], συμπεριφορά [behaviour]).

Part

Words synonym to "part" (μέρος [part], κομμάτι [piece], μερίδα [portion]) as well as words that denote parts of (concrete or abstract) entities (φλούδα [bark], ασπράδι [white of egg], κλάδος [sector]); for the latter group, we have tried to restrict them to that class of entities that cannot be thought of as "independent" of the entity they belong to.

Body_part

In accordance to the guidelines, words denoting parts of the body of humans and animals (μάτι [eye], μύτη [nose], νύχι [nail], ράμφος [beak]). Domain information has also been encoded, when appropriate, to point out parts specific to animals, insects, etc.

Group

As for parts, words synonym to "group" (σύνολο [set], συλλογή [collection], ομάδα [team/group]) and words denoting groups of specific entities, with the exception of humans (κοπάδι [flock], σμήνος [swarm]). A lot of these words are followed by a noun phrase in plural genitive, which denotes the entities that form the group. This is reflected in the predicative representation.

Human_group

Words used to denote groups of humans (πόλη [city],εκκλησία [church], κοινό [audience]); for most of these words there holds a polysemy relation with a location or institution. As for group words, some of these - mainly hyperonoymic words (σώμα εκλεκτόρων, δικαστών, κτλ. [body of electors, judges, etc.] ) - take a noun phrase in plural genitive, which denotes the entitites that form the group. Obviously, words that incorporate semantically in the same word the entities forming the group do not take such a complement (πόλη [city]).

Amount

Words denoting amount (σταγόνα [drop], ποσότητα [quantity], κουταλιά [spoonful], βαθμός [degree]). Some of these words take part in the construction "X + genitive Noun Phrase", which is encoded in the predicative structure. In addition, this template includes words denoting the amount contained in a container, i.e. holding a polysemic relation with containers (κουτί [box], μπουκάλι [bottle]).

Entity

Words denoting imaginary or superior entities (θεός [god], τέρας [monster]) or general words that cannot be further specified (πράγμα [thing]); also words whose sense includes material and immaterial things (φύση [nature]).

Concrete_entity

Words denoting concrete entities, i.e. those that have a material/concrete substance (πράγμα [thing], αντικείμενο [object]); also words whose sense includes readings that can be classified under more than one templates, and have, therefore been assigned the hypernym template (αγορά [in the sense of merchandise, which can be an Artifact and a Material]).

Location

General words denoting locations, that cannot be included in the more specific templates (τόπος [place], χώρος [space], θέση [position]), or words whose meaning can be applied to two or more of the specific templates, without any essential changes in the meaning of the word : for instance, the word λιμάνι [port] refers to either a natural place or an artificially made one, so it could be assigned the templates Area as well as Artifactual_area. To avoid this, we have included it in the template Location. Similarly, αγορά [market] can be an open area or a built space (i.e. Artifactual_Area or Building); to avoid multiple assignment, we have opted to include it under the Location template.

This template and some of its more specific subtemplates hold polysemy relations with the template of Institution and that of Human_group.

3_D_Location

Locations with three dimensions, i.e. having height (λόφος [hill], βουνό [mountain]), or depth (λάκκος [pit], θάλασσα [sea], ποτάμι [river]).

Geopolitical_Location

Words denoting cities, countries, etc. (Ελλάδα [Greece], Ρώμη [Rome]), and words denoting geographical locations that are defined with respect to administrative purposes (νομός [county], κοινότητα [community], περιφέρειa [district], πόλη [city]).

Area

For natural locations that are either areas or surfaces ("κάτι βρίσκεται πάνω/μέσα/στο Χ" [something is on/in/at X"]) (παραλία [beach], χωράφι [field], νησί [island], ύπαιθρος [countryside], μονοπάτι [path]).

Opening

Words denoting openings, i.e. locations through which someone can pass (πόρτα [door], άνοιγμα [opening], παράθυρο [window]). For some words (τρύπα [hole]) there is an ambiguity with 3_D_locations; in these cases, we have opted to include them under the template of 3_D_location, given that the opening is only part of their meaning.

Building

Words denoting buildings or blocks of buildings (σχολείο [school], τράπεζα [bank], σπίτι [house]) and rooms - parts of buildings (τάξη [classroom], αίθουσα [room]). Along with geopolitical locations, this class includes polysemous words, having also a meaning assigned to institutions (buildings used for specific administrative, commercial, etc. purposes) and/or human groups (people that work or are present in these buildings).

Artifactual_area

For areas that have been constructed (δρόμος [street], πάρκο [park], πλατεία [square]). Note that this class includes even areas that contain buildings as part of the installations (αεροδρόμιο [airport]). If a word can be both an Area and an Artifactual_area, it is assigned the template Location (λιμάνι [port]).

Material

For words synonym to "material" (ύλη [matter], υλικό [material]) and for words denoting entities used as materials (κλωστή [hair], πλάκα [paving stone], σανίδι [floor board]). This class is contrasted to Artifactual_material and Natural_substance : substances that can be used as materials without any kind of process or, if they can be processed, without any change in their substance, are coded as Natural_substances (e.g. ξύλο [wood]); artificial entities (i.e. constructed through a specific kind of process) which are used as materials are encoded as Artifactual_materials (e.g. τσιμέντο [cement]); entities used as materials which can be classified as Natural_substance and Artifactual_material are encoded as Material to avoid multiple template assignment.

Artifact

Words synonyms to "artifact" (κατασκεύασμα [artifact], προϊόν [product]) and words denoting entities that are constructed and which do not apply to any of the more specific templates (ραδιόφωνο [radio], στρώμα [matress], μπάλα [ball]).

Artifactual_material

For words denoting substances or objects that have undergone some process and which are used as materials (δέρμα [leather], γούνα [fur], φίδι [snake], πλαστικό [plastic]). See also the section for Material.

Furniture

According to the specifications, words denoting artifacts used for furnishing (καρέκλα [chair], κρεβάτι [bed], ντουλάπα [wardrobe]).

Clothing

Words denoting items of clothing (φόρεμα [dress], παντελόνι [trousers]) and accessories of clothing (τσάντα [bag], ζώνη [belt], παπούτσι [shoe]).

Container

Words denoting entities used for putting something inside (μπουκάλι [bottle], κουτί [box], κουβάς [basket]). For some of the words, there holds the polysemy between cotainer and amount of content.

Artwork

Words denoting works of art (πίνακας [painting], άγαλμα [statue], τραγούδι [song]).

Instrument

Word denoting entities used to help do something : tools (σφυρί [hammer], κατσαβίδι [screwdriver]), instruments (λαβίδα [tongs],νυστέρι [lancet]), musical instruments (βιολί [violin], πιάνο [piano]).

Money

General words for "money" (χρήμα [money], νόμισμα [coin]), as well as words for specific items of currency used in various countries (λίρα [pound], δραχμή [drachma], δεκάρα [tenpence]). We have decided that this class refers to the concrete artifacts that are used as exchange items; in addition, some of these words exhibit a polysemy relation with the template Unit_of_measurement, which is not formally encoded.

Vehicle

Words denoting vehicles; domain features are used to distinguish them depending on whether they are used to travel on land, sea, air or space (μηχανή [motorcycle], αυτοκίνητο [car], αερόστατο [balloon], διαστημόπλοιο [spacecraft]).

Semiotic_artifact

Words denoting objects used to convey some information (βιβλίο [book], έγγραφο [document], φυλλάδιο [brochure], συμβόλαιο [contract]). We have also included words of the type ταινία [film], which are not written media of information but still support information.

Food

Words synonym to "food" (τροφή [food], τρόφιμο [food], φαγητό [food]) and general words that may be natural or artifactual kinds of food (επιδόρπιο [dessert]). In this class we have also encoded parts of animal meat (μπριζόλα [steak], παϊδάκι [rib]).

Artifact_food

Words denoting entities that are prepared/made in order to be eaten (σάντουιτς [sandwich], τυρί [cheese], ψητό [roast], σούπα [soup]). See also substance_food.

Flavouring

Words denoting substances used to season food (ξίδι [vinegar], αλάτι [salt], μπαχάρι [spice], πιπέρι [pepper]).

Physical_object

Shaped natural non-living entities (κοτρόνα [stone], πέτρα [stone], αστέρι [star]). Some of these can also be used as materials; if this is their primary function, they are encoded as "material".

Organic_object

Natural shaped entities produced by other natural entities (αυγό [egg], σώμα [body]).

Living_entity

General senses for living entities, which correspond, for instance, to group names used for animals as well as human beings and/or plants (οργανισμός [organism - in the sense of "every living entity", including thus animals and humans]).

Animal

Hyperonymic words (ζώο [animal]) and words denoting classes of animals that belong to more than one of the more specific classes (e.g. θηλαστικό [mammal] includes mainly earth_animals but also water_animals). In general, we have used the recommended specific subtypes, based on the "main" habitat of each animal.

Earth_animal

Words denoting animals that live mainly on earth (λιοντάρι [lion], γάτα [cat], γουρούνι [pig]); we have also included in this template amphibians (βάτραχος [frog]), encoding for them the additional habitat of water, as well as certain "birds" that live mainly on earth (κότα [hen]). Further information is provided by the semantic class and the appropriate semantic features and relations for each animal, so that their combination will allow us to distinguish between them. Furthermore, hypernym words for classes of animals, when all of the members of this class are earth_animals (τρωκτικό [rodent]) are included in this template type.

Air_animal

Words denoting animals (birds and insects) that live mainly in the air (πουλί [bird], έντομο [insect], αετός [eagle], μέλισσα [bee]). The test "X flies" has been used loosely to identify air_animals; for instance, κότα [hen], has been encoded as an earth_animal, since this is its main habitat, and flying is not a prototypical feature for this animal.

Water_animal

Words denoting animals that live mainly in the water (ψάρι [fish],δελφίνι [dolphin], χταπόδι [octopus]). Amphibians have been encoded as earth_animals, with the supplementary information for their second habitat, i.e. water.

Human

Words denoting humans that cannot be classified under the more specific templates of the hierarchy for human beings (άνδρας [man], γυναίκα [woman], αγόρι [boy], άνθρωπος [human]).

The feature Sex has been encoded for all entries, since we have considered that sex is an iformation relevant to all humans. More specifically, the feature Sexmale is encoded only for semantic units which have a male sex; this also applies to the semantic units of the female sex, while SemU’s with an underspecified sex (e.g. άνθρωπος [human being]) have been assigned the feature Sexunderspecified. In the cases where a SemU is considered ambiguous regarding sex and at the same time it is also marked either for the male or the female sex, it has been split into two SemU’s, where one of them has a Sexunderspecified and the other has a Sexmale or Sexfemale feature. For instance, μουσικός [musician] has two SemU's, one for the underspecified entry and one for the male human being. Note that the strategy followed for the assignment of the feature Sex in this template applies also to the subtemplates of the Human hierarchy.

As regards domain information, this is assigned only to special cases, where the SemU has a specific meaning and thus can be classified under a domain category (φίλαθλος [sportsman]).

People

Words denoting names of people which live in a certain geographical or geopolitical area or people belonging to a certain races, tribes or nations (Άγγλος [English], δημότης [citizen]). The polysemy relation [People]. [Language] does not apply to Greek.

Role

Words denoting humans which are members of a group (μέλος [member], ακαδημαϊκός [akademician]). Words denoting a more specific role in a group are encoded under the more specific templates of the Role hierarchy. Some of the SemU’s (including deverbal nouns as well as non-deverbal nouns) that belong to this template have an argument structure. Under this template type we have included also words that could also be assigned to Profession, when it was considered more important to stress the fact that they belong to a certain group (παπάς [priest]). This also holds for the subtemplates of the Role hierarchy.

Ideo

Words denoting humans which are followers of a movement, an ideology, a religion, a theory or a political system (κομουνιστής [communist], ορθόδοξος [orthodox]). The domain information refers mainly to politics, philosophical theories or to names of different religions.

Kinship

Words denoting humans which are relatives by blood or affinity (γιος [son], πατέρας [father], σύζυγος [husband]). All SemU’s under this template have an optional complement (Noun phrase in genitive), which is assigned the Role_Kinship in the argument structure.

Social_status

Words denoting humans which bear a social title or a prestigious post in a social hierarchy (βασιλιάς [king], σερ [ser]).

Agent_of_temporary_activity

Words denoting humans with a temporary property (πεζός [pedestrian]) or individuals that have performed an activity for at least once (νικητής [winner], δολοφόνος [murderer]). This template is also assigned to individuals that denote a social relationship that cannot be considered kinship (εραστής [lover], φίλος [friend]). We didn't opt for encoding the temporary sense of nominals that alternate between the persistent and temporary meaning (ο συγγραφέας βιβλίων [a book writer] (generic sense) and o συγγραφέας της έκθεσης [the writer of the report] (specific/temporary sense)).

Agent_of_persistent_activity

Words denoting individuals that possess a specific hobby (ψαράς [fisherman]) or habit (καπνιστής [smoker]), or individuals which hold a qualification. Under the term "qualification" we include talent, abilities, skill and educational qualifications (μουσικός [musician], φωτογράφος [photographer], γιατρός [doctor], ζωγράφος [painter]). A polysemy relation may hold between the agentive and the profession meaning of a noun, (cf. Profession 2.3.3.41).

Profession

Words denoting humans that practise a specific profession and earn money from it (υπάλληλος [employee], εργάτης [worker], δικαστής [judge]). A polysemy relation may hold between meaning of the profession (=paid activity) and the persistent (but not paid) activity. To these polysemous nouns belong artists (ζωγράφος [painter]), scientists (doctor [γιατρός], αρχαιολόγος [archeologist]), and techicians (μηχανικός [engineer]) who earn money from their activity.

Vegetal

Words denoting vegetal organisms that cannot be classified under the more specific nodes of the Vegetal hierarchy and also mushrooms (οπωρολαχανικά [vegetables and fruits], μύκητας [mushroom]).

Plant

Words denoting plants, trees and bushes (λεμονιά [lemon tree], ελιά [olive tree], τριανταφυλλιά [rose tree], μαρούλι [lettuce], θάμνος [bush]). Some of these plants require the semantic feature [Edible], when they can be eaten themselves and not their fruit. It should be noted that this feature implements the Food meaning of the Plant, as, according to the guidelines, the double meaning of Plant and Food is not considered a polysemy which would require two different SemU’s. For example, the word μαρούλι [lettuce] has been coded as Plant [Edible], because it is the plant itself that can be eaten.

Flower

Words denoting flowers are coded under this template (τριαντάφυλλο [rose], λουλούδι [flower], γιασεμί [jasmine], βιολέτα [violet]).

Fruit

Words denoting fruit produced by plants or trees (ελιά [olive - the fruit of the olive tree], μήλο [apple], αμύγδαλο [almond]). For fruits that can be eaten, the semantic feature [Edible] has been used and the two different aspects of the meaning are not considered as a polysemy.

Micro-organism

Words denoting micro-organisms visible only with a microscope (μικρόβιο [microbe], ιός [virus], βακτήριο [bacterium]). It should be noted that the Domain "Biology" proposed in the template does not exist in Lexiquest's domain list. For this reason, the domains "Medicine" for words like ιός [virus] and "Bacteriology" for words like βακτήριο [bacterium] have been used.

Substance

Words denoting substances (unshaped mass entities), chemical substances, substances used as cosmetics or drugs etc., which are underspecified with respect to whether they are natural or artificial, or which can be sometimes natural and sometimes artificial (κρέμα [cream-cosmetics], φάρμακο [drug], ύλη [substance], χρώμα [colouring-that can be natural or artificial substance]).

Natural_substance

Words denoting physical substances or substances produced by natural entities (καπνός [smoke], νερό [water], άμμος [sand], ιδρώτας [sweat]).

Natural_substances that can be used as materials have been assigned both Semantic classes proposed in the template, i.e. "Substance" and "Matter" (ξύλο [wood]). See also Material and Artifactual_material.

Edible physical substances like μέλι [honey] have been also assigned this template with Semantic feature "Edible", instead of the recommended Substance_food which has been used only for natural substances denoting animal meat, that can be eaten usually cooked (cf. Substance_food).

Substance_food

Words denoting substances that can be eaten. It has been decided to use it only for animal meat which can be eaten, usually cooked (κρέας [meat], κοτόπουλο [chicken], αρνί [lamb], σολομός [saumon], αστακός [lobster]).

Drink

Words denoting substances that are used for drinking and are underspecified as to whether they are natural or artificial (ποτό [drink], νέκταρ [nectar]).

Artifactual_drink

Words denoting artifactual substances that are used for drinking like alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, juices etc (μπίρα [beer], κρασί [wine], καφές [coffee], χυμός [juice]). In this template, we have coded also words denoting beverages usually made by boiling the leaves of a plant (τσάι [tea], χαμομήλι [chamomile]). The domain "Food" has been assigned to all lemmas of this template. The domain "Drink" has been additionally coded on the alcoholic drinks, like wine, beer, vodka, whisky etc.

Property

General notions denoting properties, abililies, characteristics or words that cannot be classified under a more specific template (χαρακτήρας [character], φωνή [voice]). Almost all the SemU’s assigned the Property have an argument structure and most of them are deadjectival nouns.

Quality

Words denoting properties characterising things, situations and humans (ομορφιά [beauty], τιμιότητα [honesty], ακαταστασία [mess]). Most of the Quality encoded entities have an argument structure and some of them are deadjectival nouns.

Psych_property

Words denoting psychic or mental properties that characterise humans as opposed to other living entities (λόγος [speech], σκέψη [thought], ευφυΐα [intelligence]). Most of the SemU’s in this template have an argument structure.

Phychical_property

Words denoting measurable physical properties of humans and things (ύψος [height], ταχύτητα [speed], βάρος [weight]). Most of the SemU’s in this template have an argument structure and some of them are deadjectival nouns.

Phychical_power

Words denoting senses and the word "sense" itself (αφή [touch], όραση [sight], γεύση [taste]). Most of the SemU’s in this template have an argument structure.

Color

Words denoting names of colors (άσπρο [white], κόκκινο [red]).

Shape

Words denoting types of geometrical shapes (τρίγωνο [triangle], παραλληλόγραμμο [parallelogram]).

Sοcial_property

Words denoting social power (λόγος [right of speaking], εξουσία [power]).

Abstract_entity

Words denoting abstract entities that cannot be classified under the more specific templates (θέμα [topic], ύλη [matter]). It has also been decided to assign this template to words denoting grammatical features (πρόσωπο [grammatical person], αριθμός [grammatical number]).

Domain

Words denoting scientific and cognitive fields, disciplines, school subjects, etc. (πολιτική [politics],ιστορία [history], επιστήμη [science], μουσική [music], χημεία [chemistry]).

Time

Words denoting time, period of time, point of time, parts of processes or events (μήνας [month], ημέρα [day], ζωή [life], φθινόπωρο [autumn], Απρίλιος [April]). Some of the words of this template are also assigned to the template Unit_of_measurement (cf. below).

Moral_standard

Words denoting moral standards, principles and ideals that influence human behavior (δικαιοσύνη [justice], ελευθερία [freedom], φιλανθρωπία [charity]).

Cognitive_fact

Words denoting the result of a cognitive or mental process (άποψη [opinion], ιδέα [idea], γνώση [knowledge], θεωρία [theory]).

Movement_of_thought

Words denoting theories, systems of thought or movements of art (σοσιαλισμός [Socialism], φασισμός [Fascism], εξπρεσιονισμός [Expressionism]).

Institution

Words denoting institutions, institutes, organisations and financial institutions (σχολείο [school], επιτροπή [commission], αστυνομία [police], μουσείο [museum]). There is usually a polysemy relation between this template and Human_Group (group of people who work for the Institution) and Building (the building is which the Institution is based).

Convention

Words denoting a convention, an agreement, a contract, a law, etc. from the point of view of their content (νόμος [law], συμβόλαιο [contract], φόρος [tax]). These words are usually polysemous between Semiotic_Artifact and Convention as they denote both the support and the content of a convention.

Representation

Words denoting graphic symbols or other symbols of representing and transferring information in general, or words that cannot be classified under the more specific templates of this hierarchy (γλώσσα [language], ιός [virus], εικόνα [icon], πρόγραμμα [program]).

Language

Words denoting names of languages and dialects spoken by groups of people (ελληνικά [Greek], αγγλικά [English]). The polysemy relation [Language]. [People] does not apply for Greek, as it also happens to its symmetric polysemy [People]. [Language].

Sign

Words denoting names of specific symbols that transfer information, such as punctuation symbols, letters of the alphabet, mathematical symbols (κόμμα [comma], υποδιαστολή [decimal point], πρόταση [sentence]). Regarding assignment of semantic class, we have decided to encode the semantic class "Abstract" to all signs except letters, which take the semantic class "Letter".

Information

Words denoting the information included in a printed medium or any other medium transferring information, such as film (διαβατήριο [passport], εφημερίδα [newspaper], γράμμα [letter]). Most of the SemU’s in this template have a poysemic relation with Semiotic_artifacts.

Number

Words denoting mathematical notions concerning numbers (αριθμός [number], γινόμενο [mathematical product]). Actual names of numbers have not been encoded, since they are encoded under the grammatical category "Numeral" at the Parole lexicon and, therefore, will not be encoded at the semantic level.

Unit_of_measurement

Words denoting units of measurement referring to mathematics, astronomy, geometry, finance, meteorology, time, etc. (κιλό [kilo], ημέρα [day], δραχμή [drachma], χρόνος [year]). We have noticed that units of measurement for currency and time are polysemous and could be related through the corresponding polysemy relations to templates [Money] and [Time], which, however, have not been formally encoded, before we discuss it first with the Specifications Group.

event

Words denoting that something has happened or happens (συμβαίνει [to happen], πραγματοποιούμαι [to take place], γίνομαι [to become], γεγονός [event]).

Phenomenon

Nouns denoting natural phenomena (φως [light], αντικατοπτρισμός [reflection]) or weather phenomena (βροχή [rain], καταιγίδα [storm]); also hypernym nouns denoting disease (ασθένεια [disease], νόσος [illness]) or relevant to disease (σύμπτωμα [symptom], πυρετός [fever]). Finally, verbs denoting natural phenomena (βραδιάζει [to get dark]); note that verbs denoting weather phenomena are assigned the template Weather_verb.

Weather_verb

Verbs denoting weather phenomena (χιονίζει [to snow], βρέχει [to rain]). We have included in this template both personal and impersonal constructions for these meanings (e.g. (φυσάει [to blow - in the sense the wind blows]).

Disease

Words denoting physical and mental diseases or disorders (καρκίνος [cancer], γρίππη [influenza]).

Stimulus

Words denoting stimuli which can be perceived by senses (ήχος [sound], οσμή [smell]).

Aspectual

Words denoting the beginning, the continuation and the termination or the pause of an action or an event (αρχίζω [begin], συνεχίζω [continue], τελειώνω [finish]). Words with aspectual denotation, which, however, do not refer to the beginning, contination or termination of an event, are codified in the template where they belong with the addition of the feature “aspect” (μένω [to continue being in the same condition]).

Cause_Aspectual

Words denoting that someone begins, continues or finishes an event or a procedure (αρχίζω [begin], συνεχίζω [continue], τελειώνω [finish]).

State

Verbs or nouns denoting that someone is at a certain state ((κατάσταση [state], φύση [nature], ασθένεια[disease], ασθενώ[to be ill], νοσώ [to be ill]).

Exist

Verbs or nouns denoting existence (ζω [to live], υπάρχω to [exist]) or a specific way of existing (λιμνάζω [to stagnate], ευημερώ [ to prosper]) and their antonyms.

Relational_state

Stative verbs or nouns denoting underspecified relations between two or more entities (συνδέομαι [connect], σχετίζομαι [relate], αφορά [concern]). When the type of the relation is further specified, the entry is assigned one of the more specific template types.

Identificational_state

Words denoting states which relate a property to an entity (ομοιότητα [similarity], ισότητα [equality], μοιάζω [resemble], φαίνομαι [appear]) and words for states which specify the manner or the connotation of a relation among entities (ανταγωνισμός [competition], αρμονία [harmony]).

Constitutive_state

Words denoting that two entities stand in a part-relation, namely that one entity is (or is no longer) part of the other (αποτελώ [constitute], περιλαμβάνω [include], ένωση [union], συγγένεια [kinship], λείπω [not to be part]).

Stative_location

Verbs and nouns denoting location of an entity in a specific place, permanent residency and geographical formation (συνορεύω [border], περικλείω [enclose]).

Stative_possession

Verbs or nouns denoting that someone possesses something. The possession is static and does not involve any transfer (έχω [to have], κατέχω [to possess]).

act

Words denoting general and underspecified acts (ενεργώ[to act], δρω[to act], δραστηριοποιούμαι [to be activated], ενεργοποιούμαι [to be activated])

Non_relational_act

Words denoting physical processes which relate to differents kinds of concrete entities; more specifically, words denoting emission of smell (μυρίζω [to smell], βρομάω [to stink]), substance (ιδρώνω [to sweat], light (ακτινοβολώ [to radiate]) etc, entity specific modes of being (ανθίζω [to bloom]), acts making reference to time (παρέρχομαι [to elapse]), and words denoting sounds made by animals or other concrete entities (γαβγίζω [to bark], κράζω [to crow], ηχώ [to sound]).This class includes words with an inchoative reading, while most of them exhibit a polysemy relation with the template Cause_act.

Relational_act

Words denoting acts taking place between two entities (e.g. χτυπώ [hit], μασώ [chew], verbs denoting care for some part of the body, verbs of clothing, etc.). If the act can be further specified, a more specific template is used.

Cooperative_activity

Words denoting generally activities that individuals carry out together (συμφωνώ [agree], διαφωνώ [disagree], μάχομαι [fight], συναντώ [meet], συμφωνία [agreement], συνάντηση [meeting]). Many reciprocal verbs are also included in this category (αγαπιέμαι [be loved], βλέπομαι [meet each other]), in order to emphasise the notion of cooperation. The corresponding active voice verb is not always included in the same template.

Purpose_act

Words denoting acts relating to a specific purpose (πραγματοποιώ [to realise], χρησιμοποιώ [to use], εργάζομαι [to work], επάγγελμα [occupation], παίζω [to play], εκπαιδεύω [to train)].

Move

Words denoting the way that a living entity or an object moves (περπατάω/ώ [walk], βαδίζω [pace], καλπάζω [gallop], οδηγώ [drive], πηδάω/ώ [jump], χορεύω [dance], κυλώ [roll/flow]). There is an overlap with the "Change_of_location" template, in which the destination and the move towards a specific place, rather than the way of moving, is important.

Cause_motion

Words denoting that an individual causes motion (ωθώ [push], προωθώ [propel], τραβώ [pull], κυλώ [roll]). There is an overlap with the "Cause_change_of_location" template, in which the change of location and not the way of moving itself is important.

Cause_act

Words denoting that someone causes an event or an action (ηχώ [to sound], αναπνέω [to breathe]. This class includes words with a causative reading; additionally polysemy relation may hold with words under the template Non_relational_act.

Speech_act

Verbs and nouns denoting communication acts and ways of speaking (μιλάω/ώ [speak], εκφράζω [express], φωνάζω [shout], ψιθυρίζω [whisper], μουρμουρίζω [murmur]). Verbs denoting inarticulate sounds (βογκάω/ώ [groan]) are codified as "Non_relational_act". Some verbs are codified with both meanings (ουρλιάζω [scream]). We have also decided to codify in this template (and not in that of Reporting_event) verbs that denote reporting of information, when it is considered more important to stress the "way"- their different meaning is not always distinguishable (ψιθυρίζω [whisper] can be seen as a speech_act involving, in certain cases, reporting of an envent, e.g. I whispered him a secret – he keeps whispering and I don’t understand what he is saying).

Cooperative_speech_act

Words describing verbal interaction between two or more participants (συνομιλώ [talk], συζητάω/ώ [discuss], συνομιλία [discussion], διάλογος [conversation]). In this template we also codify verbs that be could be codified in other speech_act templates as well, if emphasis is given on the reciprocity of the speech act (αποχαιρετίζομαι με κάποιον [say goodbye with someone]).

Reporting_event

Verbs or nouns, which report the speech of others, make claims or provide information (ισχυρίζομαι [argue], πληροφορώ [inform], ανακοινώνω [announce], επιβεβαιώνω [confirm], εξηγώ [explain]). In some cases there is an overlap with the Give_knowledge template; the criterion for distinguishing between the two is that of the transferred "object", i.e. simple information or real knowledge.

Commissive_speech_act

Verbs or nouns denoting commitment of the speaker to do something or not to do it (υπόσχομαι [promise], απειλώ [threaten], ορκίζομαι [swear], αρνούμαι [deny]).

Directive_speech_act

Verbs or nouns denoting a speech act whereby the speaker expects the hearer to do or not to do something (ζητώ από κάποιον να κάνει κάτι [ask somebody to do something], απαγορεύω σε κάποιον να κάνει κάτι [forbid sb to do sth]). In these cases, the second participant is considered obligatory.

Expressive_speech_act

Verbs or nouns denoting the speaker’s feelings for someone or something (the speech acts whereby the speaker expresses a feeling towards something : an individual, an event or a proposition) (συγχαίρω [congratulate], ευχαριστώ [thank], καλωσορίζω [welcome]). In these cases, the clausal complement denotes cause, and has, therefore, been codified as Role_Underspecified.

Declarative_speech_act

Verbs and nouns denoting communication speech act in which speaker and hearer participate in an extralinguistic institution. (ονομάζω [name], βαφτίζω [call], αποκαλώ [call]).

Psychological_event

Words denoting events which relate to "human mind" (αισθάνομαι [to feel],, συναισθάνομαι [to become aware]).This class includes mainly words expressing a psychological states and processes, while the pure mental states and processes have been encoded under the template Cognitive_event.

Cognitive_event

Verbs and nouns denoting mental activities (σκέφτομαι [think], αναλύω [analyze]) or states (αγνοώ [be unaware of], ξέρω [know], γνωρίζω [know]) or suspicion, intuition (υποψιάζομαι [suspect], μαντεύω [guess]).

Judgement

Verbs or nouns denoting someone’s judgement or opinion about somebody or something (κρίνω [judge], θεωρώ [think]). Only syntactic units with small clause are assigned this template.

Experience_event

Verbs or nouns denoting that a person feels, senses or is in an emotional state caused by an event (φοβάμαι [to fear], ευχαριστιέμαι [to be pleased]). The polysemy relation with the Cognitive_event has not been used.

Cause_experience_Event

Verbs or nouns whose subject causes emotion to the object (τρομάζω [frighten], φοβίζω [scare]).

Perception

Verbs and nouns denoting experiences related to the five senses (ακούω [hear], βλέπω [see], μυρίζω [smell]). The subject of these verbs must be a living entity.

Modal_event

Words denoting expectation, volition, hope, need (θέλω [to want], ελπίζω [to hope], χρειάζομαι [to need]).

Change

Words denoting an underspecified change as regards the state or the properties of an entity. We have decided that, since the difference between this template and its hyponym "Change_of_state" is not clear enough, we encode here only the verb (αλλάζω [to change]) and the relevant noun (αλλαγή [change]).

Relational_change

Verbs or nouns denoting that two entities enter in a relation, which is not further specified, i.e. it is not a part-whole relation and they don’t form a group (ενώνω [to unite], χωρίζω [to separate]). In particular, in this template are codified meanings denoting relations between humans.

Constitutive_change

Verbs or nouns denoting that two entities, which are already related in a part-of relation produce a new entity. In particular they denote:

two entities are united in order to form a new entity (συνδέομαι (to be connected])

an entity becomes part of another entity (αποκολλώμαι [to be detached])

someone becomes (or stops being) member of a well-organised entity (εγγράφομαι [to subscribe], απολύομαι [to be fired]).

Change_of_state

Words denoting the change in a state of an entity (βράζω [boil], καίω [burn], ανάβω [light]). They are often polysemous words, having also a meaning assigned to the causative counterpart. Some of these words also have a meaning that could be assigned to the Change_of_location template (especially verbs denoting removal, e.g. καθαρίζω [clean]). In this case, they are codified in both templates and the selectional restrictions distinguish the meanings: (e.g. καθάρισε το ρούχο από τους λεκέδες [the dress was cleaned from the spots]à change of state, καθάρισε ο λεκές από το ρούχο [the spot was removed from the dress]à change of location). There is also an overlap with the Change_of_value template.

Change_of_value

Verbs or nouns denoting change of value, i.e. price, size, amount, or dimensions; they involve a change of state, which is further specified; the fact that the change can be "countable" is used as a criterion for the codification (e.g. αυξάνω το ψωμί κατά δύο δραχμές [the price of bread rose by 2 drs] but *ενισχύω το κύρος κατά… [*raise the prestige by …] cannot be said).

Change_of_possession

Verbs or nouns denoting a transfer which can be specified as to whether the individual acquires the possession of a concrete entity (βρίσκω [find], ανακτώ [to gain again]).

Transaction

Verbs or nouns denoting transfer of possession of an entity from one individual to another one; the transaction could involve transfer of money as well (κληρονομώ [to inherit], δίνω [to give]).

Change_of_location

Verbs or nouns denoting movement towards a place, change of location of an entity (απομακρύνομαι [leave], προσέρχομαι [go towards], μπαίνω [enter]). There is an overlap with the Move template, but this template puts the emphasis on the sense of direction rather than movement.

Natural_transition

Verbs or nouns denoting primitive transition from one state to another, namely from existence to non-existence (γεννιέμαι [be born], εμφανίζομαι [appear]), and their antonyms (πεθαίνω [die], εξαφανίζομαι [disappear]).

Acquire_knowledge

Verbs or nouns denoting that an individual reaches a certain mental state as a result of some event. The difference between words belonging to this template and those belonging to the Cognitive_event is that in this template there is the change in the mental state : we start by ignoring something and move to a state in which, by the intervention of an event (e.g. research, investigation, study, etc.), we acquire knowledge or end up with a conclusion (e.g. μαθαίνω μια γλώσσα [learn a language], i.e. I do not know it and go through the process of studying in order to know it). In cognitive events, on the other hand, we are in a mental state or process, or we make an evaluation, which may lead us to a conclusion or a judgement (e.g. γνωρίζω [know - in the sense of possessing the knowledge about a certain situation]).

Cause_change

Words denoting undespecified changes caused as regards the state or the properties of an entity. This class is the cuasative counterpart of the template "Change". As for template Change only the causative reading of the verb (αλλάζω [to change]) has been encoded here.

Cause_relational_change

The causative counterpart of Relational_change. It includes verbs or nouns denoting that someone relates or separates two entities, even if they do not constitute together a whole or causes the creation or ending of a relationship between two persons (ενώνω [unite], απομονώνω [isolate]).

Cause_constitutive_change

Verbs or nouns denoting that an individual causes the creation of a part-of relation between two entities in order to constitute a new entity, or makes an entity member of another entity, and its antonym (αφαιρώ [subtract], εγγράφω [subscribe]).

Cause_change_of_state

Verbs denoting change in the state of an entity caused by another entity (μαυρίζω [to make something black], βρομίζω [to make something dirty], ανάβω [to light something]).

Cause_change_of_value

Verbs or nouns denoting that an entity causes a change in the value (price, dimensions or amount) of another entity (αυξάνω [increase], μειώνω [decrease]). As their inchoative counterparts, they have an overlap with the template Cause_change_of_state.

Cause_change_location

Verbs denoting that an entity causes the motion of something or someone and, more specifically, the relocation to another place (μετακινώ [move], στέλνω [send], οδηγώ όχημα [drive a vehicle]). As the inchoative counterparts, they have an overlap with the Cause_motion template.

Cause_natural_transition

Verbs or nouns denoting primitive transition from one state to another, namely new appearance (γεννάω [give birth to], εμφανίζω [present]) and their antonyms (σκοτώνω [kill], εξαφανίζω [cause to disappear]). In this template, we have also included verbs denoting caused appearance in the sense of making something visible, as well as their antonyms (φανερώνω [to make something visible]).

There is an overlap between this template and Creation : this template includes verbs denoting "natural" birth while the Creation template includes verbs denoting "construction" or creation through a specific productive procedure (e.g. γεννάω παιδί [give birth to a child] à Cause_natural_transition, vs. κατασκευάζω ένα έπιπλο [construct a furniture] à Creation).

Creation

Verbs or nouns denoting an event in which an entity is brought into being. These verbs are different from words belonging to the Cause_natural_transition template in that they concern a production of artifacts with a specific purpose (παράγω [produce], δημιουργώ [create]).

Physical_creation

Verbs or nouns denoting an event in which a physical object is brought into being (χτίζω [build], κατασκευάζω [construct]). The object belongs to the Artifact template or one of its hyponyms. Verbs whose meaning includes a kind of artistic or mental process are also encoded in this template (πλέκω [knit], ράβω [sew]).

Mental_creation

Verbs or nouns denoting an event in which an abstract entity is brought into being by means of mental activity (σχεδιάζω [plan], επινοώ [invent], συλλαμβάνω μια ιδέα [conceive an idea]). Two basic categories of meaning are included in this template:

I invent, bring into existence something with my mind

I plan something, in the sense that I create a schedule in my mind, which I want or intend to realize.

Verbs in the first sense have an overlap with the Cognitive_event template, but the emphasis is on the creation of a new idea, while verbs in the second sense overlap with the Modal_event template, but the emphasis is on the cognitive process rather than the wish.

Symbolic_creation

Verbs or nouns denoting the creation or production of an artwork (ζωγραφίζω [paint], συγγράφω [write a book]). They include a mental creation stage and a physical creation stage. Their object belongs to the Semiotic_artifact template or to that of Artwork. Verbs meaning writing (γράφω [write], χαράζω [inscribe]), with artistic meaning or not, are also included in this template.

Copy_creation

Verbs or nouns denoting a symbolic creation when the resulting state is one where the object which is created is identical or similar to another one (αντιγράφω [copy], πλαστογραφώ [forge]). Emphasis is given on the faithful reproduction/storage (ηχογραφώ [record], μαγνητοσκοπώ [tape]) in contrast to verbs denoting "free image reproduction" (βιντεοσκοπώ [tape a film on video]), which are encoded in the Symbolic_creation template.

Give_knowledge

Verbs or nouns denoting that an individual gives knowledge to another individual. The difference between Reporting_event and Give_knowledge is that in this template, the second participant passes from the state of ignorance to the state of knowledge, instead of being simply informed about something (διδάσκω [teach], μαθαίνω [teach]).

Extensional Adjectives

We call extensional the adjectives that express properties. They can be either intersective or subsective, depending on whether the set of entities denoted by the adjective-noun compound is the intersection of the set of entities denoted by the adjective and the set of entities denoted by the noun or not. They can be either gradable or non-gradable and either stative or dynamic.

Psychological Property: adjectives assigning psychological properties to the noun (e.g. χαρούμενος [happy], έξυπνος [intelligent], ασφαλής [secure] etc.). Adjectives that express feeling, psychological state, cognition, attitude salience and attitude evaluation belong to this template. It is obligatory to select at least one meaning component in the appropriate slot.

Social Property: adjectives assigning social properties to nouns. They are further distinguished to the following meaning components: religion (e.g. ορθόδοξος [orthodox]), political (e.g. αριστερός [leftwing]), military (e.g. στρατιωτικός [military]), economy (e.g. πλούσιος [rich]), law (e.g. εγκληματικός [criminal]) and nationality (ολλανδικός [dutsch]). Semantic class assignment has been encoded for the adjectives that have been given the nationality meaning component.

Physical Property: adjectives assigning physical properties to nouns. This is the umbrella template for the following meaning components: body (e.g. ζωντανός [alive]), perception (e.g. κόκκινος [red]), movement (e.g. γρήγορος [fast]), space (e.g. μακρύς [long]) and substance (e.g. υγρός [fluid]). Semantic class has been assigned to the adjectives that denote the colour property.

Temporal Property: adjectives belonging to this template predicate as their prime semantic function over the temporal aspects of the noun they modify. They are subcategorized in the following meaning components: temporal, temp_distribution (e.g. σπάνιος [rare]), aspect (e.g. τελικός [final]) and age (νέος [young]). Semantic class assignment is required for adjectives under this template.

Intensional adjectives

Intensional adjectives denote functions from properties to properties.

Temporal: these adjectives indicate that the entity referred to by the modified noun does not yet, or no longer, belong to the ontological class lexicalized by the noun in question (e.g. πρώην πρόεδρος [former president]).

Modal: they express some kind of predication over the ontological status of the nouns they combine with. They reflect the speaker’s judgment of the likelihood of the proposition it expresses being true (e.g. πιθανό αποτέλεσμα [possible outcome]).

Emotive: this group contains adjectives that have a strong emotive value. They are stative, nongradable and cannot be used predicatively without a change in meaning (e.g. αγαπητός φίλος [dear friend])

Manner: adjectives that belong to this group modify the event associated with the noun rather than the noun itself. The event does not necessarily have to be related morphologically to the nominal. They are stative, nongradable and cannot be used predicatively without a change in meaning (e.g. ωραίος χορευτής [beautiful dancer])

Object-related: this group contains adjectives which in most cases are morphologically derived from nouns or sometimes are related to nouns without morphological link. They always express a semantically underspecified related_to relation. (e.g. χημικός μηχανικός [chemical engineer]).

Emphasizer: they have a general heightening effect. They are stative, nongradable and generally attributive only (e.g. καθαρό ψέμα [outright lie]).

Meaning components have been added for the better descriptions of the intensional adjectives. More specifically, we have added the following meaning components (each with the values Positive, Negative, Underspecified and Neutral, as for extensional adjectives):

for modal adjectives: Possibility, Permission, Obligation, Necessity, Volition, Prediction

for temporal adjectives: IntTemporal,

for emotive adjectives: Feeling

for manner adjectives: Evaluation

for emphasizer adjectives: EmphEvaluation.

Criteria for encoding Semantic relations

It is obvious that semantic relations between SemU’s aim at increasing the descriptive power of the model. The encoding, however, of all possible semantic relations between different entries and our decision to fully encode in the lexicon all target SemU’s in order to have a "closed" lexicon, could result in a partial only coverage of the basic and more frequent word senses. Since we deem the wide coverage of basic word senses more important, we have decided not to encode "non-distinctive" and purely "encyclopaedic" semantic relations pointing to dummy SemU’s. On the contrary, we have decided to encode type-defining relations and linguistically relevant distinctive semantic relations, even if these point to dummy SemU's.

For the encoding of the semantic relations, the following general principles have been applied:

Systematic assignment of the same SemU as target for the same relation for most of the SemU’s included in each template, when it was possible. In most cases these SemU’s are general words that cover the semantic content of most source SemU’s. Allowing for such uniformity in the encoding of target SemU’s, we ensure the construction of a closed lexicon. For instance, for all Artifactual_materials the target SemU for the relation "Used_for" is κατασκευάζω [construct].

As regards the ontology based on the target SemU’s of the "Is_a" relation, we have not used the Wordnet ontology as proposed at the guidelines, given that there is no Wordnet for Greek. Instead, we have tried to create a new ontology in Greek, following the Simple templates’ hierarchy.

Criteria for encoding Derivation Relations

No derivation information has been encoded.

The polysemic relations [Animal].[Material], [Material].[Animal], [Animal].[Food], [Food].[Animal] are not used at all as we have encoded the relevant polysemies in the Animal subtemplates (cf. the Table of Polysemies that have been implemented).

The polysemies [Substance].[Plant] and [Plant].[Substance] have not been encoded, because we have decided that plants bear a polysemic relation with Natural Substances and not with Substances.

The polysemic relations which do not apply for Greek are the [Flower].[Colour] and [People].[Language]. In Greek, two different words are used for these senses (βιολέτα [violet-flower] vs. βιολετί [violet – colour], Άγγλος [English] vs. αγγλικά [English]).

The polysemy [Cognitive_event].[Experience_event] and its reverse relation have not been used because it was not clear in Greek which senses should be linked through this relation.

We have noticed that Units of measurement for currency and time could be related through the corresponding polysemy relations with the templates [Money] and [Time], which, however, have not been formally encoded, pending discussion with the Specifications Group.

Other polysemy relations that could be added for Greek are :

[Clothing].[Artifactual_Material] and its reverse: there are several examples for this polysemy like βελούδο [velvet- textile] and βελούδο [clothes made of velvet], λινό [linen] and λινό [clothes made of linen]

[Change_of_location].[Cause_change_location] and its reverse : e.g. ανοίγω [to open, for instance, the curtains] and ανοίγω [curtains open]

[Natural_transition].[Cause_natural_transition] and its reverse : : e.g. αναβιώνω [to revive something] and αναβιώνω [to be revived].

These polysemies have not been formally encoded, given that a central decision should be taken.

Representation of Predicative information

General issues

Each predicative entry carries information as regards :

the predicate to which it is linked,

the type of link with its predicate,

the number of arguments the predicate has,

semantic role of the arguments of the predicate, and

selectional restrictions for the arguments of the predicate.

Each predicative entry is linked to a lexical predicate, carrying the maximal possible number of arguments. The same predicate is used

for different lemmas, when a derivation relation holds between them (e.g. deverbal nouns are linked to the predicate of the verb they are derived from, deadjectival nouns are linked to the predicate of the relevant adjective),

for different syntactic units of the same lemma if the reading of the predicate is the same, i.e. if the syntactic units are linked to the same semantic unit

for the same syntactic unit with a frameset, when the reading for each description is the same (e.g. framesets for reciprocal alternation, locative alternation etc.); in this case, the syntactic unit has two CorrespSynuSemU but it it is linked to the same semantic unit.

When any of the characteristics of the arguments of the predicate (i.e. number, semantic role or selectional restrictions) changes, a new predicate is assigned. For example, κρατάω/ώ [keep] has two predicates : one bivalent predicate for the sense "to hold something in one's possession" and a trivalent predicate for the sense "to keep something in a certain condition".

Following the above, different predicates are used when a syntactic unit is encoded with a frameset whose descriptions lead to different readings, i.e. when the same syntactic unit is assigned two semantic units (e.g. frameset for causative – inchoative alternations).

The type of link depends upon the lemma and the relation it has with the predicate :

master : when the lemma and the lexical predicate are the same (e.g. verbs, kinship nouns),

agentnominalisation : for nouns that are derived from verbs and denote the agent of the event (e.g. καταστροφέας [destroyer], παραγωγός [producer])

patientnominalisation : for nouns derived from verbs denoting the object of the event (e.g. παράγωγο [product])

verbnominalisation : for nouns derived from verbs denoting the event itself (e.g. παραγωγή [production])

adjectivenominalisation : for nouns derived from adjectives (e.g. ελευθερία [freedom]).

The semantic role of the arguments of each predicate is determined by the sense of the lemma being encoded, and the template it belongs to. General guidelines for each class of entries are given, following the guidelines. In the next section, we give the semantic roles of the arguments we have used.

Selectional restrictions are added for all the arguments of a lemma. Selectional restrictions have been limited to :

simple or complex semantic features (domain, semantic class, template, etc.)

semantic units (e.g. καλπάζω [to gallop] takes as Arg0 the semantic unit άλογο [horse]).

Complex semantic features have been used in accordance to the SIMPLE specifications. Thus, when a list of features is given, then the complex InformArg is to be read as referring to entities that match any of these features; for instance, the following complex feature refers to entities that belong to the template Human and to entities that belong to the template Human_group:

<InformArg

id="I58"

status="CHECK"

weightvalsemfeaturel="WVSFTemplateHumanPROT WVSFTemplateHumanGroupPROT">

To mark entities that refer to the intersection of complex features, we have created dummy complex features. For instance, the following informarg refers to entities that are assigned the template Institution and the domain feature "education" at the same time:

<InformArg

id="I70"

comment="WVSFTemplateInstitutionPROT-INTERSECTION-TSVP_EDUCATION_TS_domaine_D"

status="DEFAULTCHECK">

Entries with predicative information

Predicative information is encoded for the following classes of words :

kinship nouns,

group nouns,

nouns denoting amount,

deverbal nouns (agent, patient and verb nominalisations),

nouns behaving similarly to deverbal nouns,

verbs

adjectives

deadjectival nouns.

Kinship nouns

They are involved in the construction: X + genitive NP, where the complement represents the relative with whom the kinship holds.

They are all linked to a lexical predicate, the noun itself, through MASTER linking. The argument of the predicate is assigned the semantic role of Role_Kinship, further constrained with the selectional restriction for human beings; in certain cases (e.g. άντρας [husband]), selectional restrictions also involve sex, in which case a complex feature is used.

Group nouns

They can be involved in the construction: X + genitive NP, with the addition that the NP must be in the plural number. This complement denotes the entities that make up the group.

Again, a lexical predicate (the noun itself) has been used for their predicative representation. The argument of this predicate is assigned the semantic role of Role_HeadCollective. Where selectional restrictions apply (e.g. Human_groups), we have used the appropriate informarg features.

Nouns denoting amount

They can be involved in the construction: X + genitive NP, where the complement represents the entities that are quantified through the predicate noun.

The lexical predicate in this case involves an argument assigned the semantic role of Role_HeadQuantified.

Deverbal nouns

Depending on

the verb they are derived from,

the kind of nominalisation from which they have resulted (agent / patient / verb), and

the actual constructions they can occur in,

deverbal nouns have been assigned an argument structure at the syntactic level; this structure is mapped to the predicative structure at the semantic level.

All deverbal nouns take as predicate the verb they are derived from; naturally, the type of link depends on the type of nominalisation involved in each case.

As for correspondence, this varies, given that the number of arguments actually occurring at syntax depends on each lemma. Verb and patient nominalisations usually have isomorphic correpondences, while agent nominalisations have a crossed correspondence.

Nouns behaving similarly to deverbal nouns

These are nouns not derived from verbs, yet they behave like deverbal nouns in the sense that they take complements, just like other nouns in the same template which are indeed deverbal (usually near synonyms). For instance, the word [leader], in Greek can be translated as :

αρχηγός, a non-deverbal noun appearing in the construction X + genitive NP

ηγέτης, a noun derived from the verb ηγούμαι [lead], also involved in the same construction.

In the latter case, the noun is encoded at the syntactic level with an object complement; at the semantic level, it is linked to the verb predicate through the AgentNominalisation type of link, and its complement is linked to the second argument of the verb (correspondence CROSSED0toArg1).

In the former case, the noun is encoded at the syntactic level with a complement given the label NCOMP. At the semantic level, such nouns are linked to a lexical predicate, which is the word itself (i.e. MASTER linking is used), and the semantic role of the argument is left underspecified (Role_Underspecified).

Verbs

Predicative information is assigned to verbs that have an argument structure at the level of syntax - in most of the cases, these are assigned isomorphic correspondences. This means that the only class of verbs that have not been assigned any predicative information is that of impersonal verbs which have no complements in syntax.

All verbs are linked to a predicate constituted by their self through MASTER type of link.

The same predicate is also used for the predicative representation of the nouns that are derived from predicative verbs.

We have decided to assign semantic roles to arguments on the basis of the template type, rather than on morpho-syntactic criteria.

So, for instance, speech_act verbs in general take a ProtoAgent (who performs the speech act), a ProtoPatient (the topic of the speech act) and a 2Participant (who participates in the speech act). We have decided to stick to the same role assignment, even when the ProtoPatient is missing, which means that 2Participant can also be used for bivalent verbs. Also, the ProtoPatient is assigned to the topic of the speech act irrespective of whether it is realised as a "classic" object (direct object or oblique) or as a weakly bound prepositional complement (adverbial).

The roles assigned to the arguments in the case of verbal predicates are:

Role_ProtoAgent : for the subject,

Role_ProtoPatient :

for the object denoting concrete, abstract, human or event entities whether it is realised as a noun phrase in the accusative or genitive case, as a complement clause, or as a strongly bound prepositional complement

for the adverbial complement, when this is alternating for the same semantic type.

Role_2Participant : used in, e.g. Speech_act, Reporting_event; it is used for the indirect object of trivalent verbs denoting a human or concrete entity in general; it is also assigned to the prepositional complement of bivalent and trivalent verbs, when this performs the same function

Role_Location : for locative complements realised as adverbial complements (e.g. stative_location)

Role_Origin : for complements that denote origin (e.g Change_of_location),

Role_Direction : for directional complements (e.g. Change_of_location)

Role_Attributive : for attribute complements of the subject (e.g. identificational_state) or object of the verb (e.g. Declarative_speech_act)

Role_Underspecified : for all other arguments, whose role is not clearly identified (e.g. complements denoting reference, complements denoting time, clausal complements denoting cause).

Adjectives

All adjectives at the syntactic level have been encoded with at least one complement, identified as SUBJECT. Further complements have been assigned to an adjective, depending on its reading, e.g. adjectives denoting psychological state are assigned a second complement realised as a clause or as a prepositional phrase, which denotes the cause of the state.

Therefore, all adjectives are linked through the MASTER relation to a lexical predicate, which is the adjective itself, and the correspondence between the complements and the arguments is always isomorphic (in most cases, ISOmonovalent). As for the semantic role of the adjectives' complements, the value "Role_Underspecified" has been used.

Deadjectival nouns

As for deverbal nouns, these are linked to the lexical predicate of the entry they are derived from. The type of link is "AdjectiveNominalisation".
