Representations in WordNet are not on the level of individual words or word forms, but on the level of word meanings (lexemes). A word meaning, in turn, is characterized by simply listing the word forms that can be used to express it in a synonym set (synset). As a result, the meaning a word in WordNet is determined by its sets of synonyms. This is essentially a recursive definition of word mea...

a motivated derivational word is a word that its meaning is the result of the meaning of word stem and derivational affixes. in this paper, the hypothesis is tested that by the passage fo time,motivation would be reduced and for this purpose, four itinerary passages from present and four equal passages from 200 years before are chose to understand ,under comparisons and statistical consideratio...

Word representations are mathematical objects that capture a word’s meaning and its grammatical properties in a way that can be read and understood by computers. Word representations map words into equivalence classes such that words that share similar properties to each other are part of the same equivalence class. Word representations are either constructed manually by humans (in the form of ...

the coalition between terms and their meaning can be as the result of phonological repetition in its speech structure and specific semantic load. this can lead to meaning distinction in choosing words and also meaning association. therefore, literally and syntactically, the phonological level cannot be separated from semantic level. earlier, the phonological association in text has been discuss...

juxtaposition of words is a linguistic phenomenon that exists in all languages and is not specific to a language and means common relationship of one word with other certain words in a language. juxtaposition of words is one of the most important issues of semantics because of its important role in determining meaning of many words and combinations. this verbal phenomenon is one of distinguishi...

Speech carries accent information relevant to determining the speaker's linguistic and social background. A series of web-based experiments demonstrate that accent cues can modulate access to word meaning. In Experiments 1-3, British participants were more likely to retrieve the American dominant meaning (e.g., hat meaning of "bonnet") in a word association task if they heard the words in an Am...

Evaluating a WSD task is a challenge at least as difficult as developing the task itself. Manually constructing a corpus of ambiguous sentences is a difficult and tedious task. Such a corpus is even more complex to produce if in each sentence, each ambiguous word is associated with its correct meaning. In addition to finding/imagining the sentence, it is necessary to have a word sense lexicon t...
