The Lexicon Sample Clauses
The Lexicon. For the investigations, a dictionary was taken as it is used for human lookup but modified for machine processing. The LinguaDict lexicon [▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇/linguadict] was selected in order to extend the coverage of transfers beyond normal MT lexicons, and have a realistic size of a bilingual lexicon. Compared to MT lexicons, lexicons for human lookup contain much more transfers, and give clues how to select the best transfer in a given situation. The challenge is to find such transfer disambiguation clues by corpus analysis. no. entries no. SL terms no. transfers/term As the transfer selection is directed, i.e. specific for a given language direction, the tests were made for German -> English.
