Micru, Finn, Thank you for the hyperlinks to the pertinent projects.
I’m thinking that machine lexicon services could include URL-addressible: (1) headwords and lemmas, (2) conjugations and declensions, and (3) specific senses or definitions. Each conjugation or declension could have its own URL-addressable definitions. Machine-utilizable definitions are envisioned as existing in a number of machine-utilizable knowledge representation formats. In addition to Web-based user interfaces for content editing, machine lexicons could support bulk API’s including those based on XML-RPC and SPARUL. With regard to the use of SPARQL and SPARUL, there may already exist a suitable ontology. Some lexical ontologies include: Lemon (https://www.w3.org/2016/05/ontolex/), LexInfo (http://www.lexinfo.net/), LIR (http://mayor2.dia.fi.upm.es/oeg-upm/index.php/en/technologies/63-lir/), LMM (http://ontologydesignpatterns.org/wiki/Ontology:LMM), semiotics.owl (http://www.ontologydesignpatterns.org/cp/owl/semiotics.owl), and Senso Comune (http://www.sensocomune.it/). It should be possible to extend existing ontologies to include machine-utilizable definitions in a number of knowledge representation formats. I’m thinking about topics in knowledge representation with regard to the formal semantics of nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, pronouns, prepositions and conjunctions and about how automated reasoners could make use of machine-utilizable definitions to obtain and compare semantic interpretations as software systems parse natural language.
