Abstract

We describe an ongoing project of construction of the Tatar Wordnet. The Tatar Wordnet is being constructed on the base of three source resources, developed by us. The first source is TatThes, a bilingual Russian-Tatar Social-Political Thesaurus. TatThes, in turn, has been constructed by manual translation and extension of RuThes, a linguistic ontology for Russian. The second source is a Tatar translation of RuWordNet, a wordnet for Russian. This translation was carried out automatically on the base of a Russian-Tatar dictionary, and then was manually verified. The third source is a semantic classification of Tatar verbs, developed from scratch. We discuss the structure, methodology of compilation and the current state these source resources, and justify the choice of them as the initial resources for building the Tatar Wordnet. Our ultimate goal is to publish Tatar Wordnet on the Linguistic Linked Open Data cloud and integrate it to the Global WordNet Grid.
