Automatically Creating a Large Number of New Bilingual Dictionaries

  • Khang Lam

  • Jugal Kalita

This paper proposes approaches to automatically create a large number of new bilingual dictionaries for lowresource languages, especially resource-poor and endangered languages, from a single input bilingual dictionary. Our algorithms produce translations of words in a source language to plentiful target languages using available Wordnets and a machine translator (MT). Since our approaches rely on just one input dictionary, available Wordnets and an MT, they are applicable to any bilingual dictionary as long as one of the two languages is English or has a Wordnet linked to the Princeton Wordnet. Starting with 5 available bilingual dictionaries, we create 48 new bilingual dictionaries. Of these, 30 pairs of languages are not supported by the popular MTs: Google1 and Bing2.
