A Bilingual Lexicosemantic Network of Bread Based on a Parallel Corpus

Ivan Derzhanski, Olena Siruk


Abstract
We present an experiment in using a corpus of Bulgarian and Ukrainian parallel texts for the automatised construction of a bilingual lexicosemantic network representing the semantic field of BREAD. We discuss the extraction of the relevant material from the corpus, the production of networks with varying parameters, some issues of the interpretation of these networks, and possible ways of making them more accurate and informative.
