| Abstract: |
In this paper, we study the possibility of enriching lexical resources by adding meanings that are associated with a specialized domain. We compare a set of lexical items such as click, copy, execute and load included in two different resources: a general lexical resource called FrameNet (Ruppenhofer et al. 2010) and a specialized lexical resource of computing and the Internet called DiCoInfo (L'Homme 2008). Both resources provide explicit details on the argument structures of the lexical units; they describe their semantic and syntactic properties and provide annotated sentences. After managing the terminological and methodological differences between the resources, we compare several aspects of the lexical descriptions and organize the lexical units in terms of similarities and differences. The study reveals that most meanings described in the specialized lexical resource are not present in the general lexical resource, and could be considered for inclusion. |
