This paper,which aims to increment the vocabulary of an existing thesaurus using hyponymy relations,focuses on an agricultural thesaurus called AGROVOC.Our main goal is to acquire AGROVOC-qualified candidates from the...
This paper aims at elaborating on the semantics. The concept of hyponymy is mentioned first. Then the concept of semantic fields is mentioned. In order to make a comparison between hyponymy and semantic fields, there ...
Meaning is a central topic in semantics,but it exists in context.Context plays an important role in interpreting word meaning. It will be analyzed as follows:(1) Context determines the referents of deictic words;(2) C...
