Language Engineering, Lexical Semantics & Dictionaries

In contrast to logical semantics, lexical semantics is concerned with the analysis of word meanings and relations between them, such as synonymy and antonymy.  Many centuries of dictionary development have evolved into a highly focused discipline, Language Engineering, with greatly expanded application such as information retrieval, speech recognition, natural language processing.  Dictionaries are now being treated as lexical databases including subject domain, restricted usage, grammatical usage, separate ‘sense’ records, and lexical set markers for taxonomy building.  The metamodel of these lexical databases are directly related to ‘concept’, ‘symbol’ and ‘context’ in OBC Topics 1 and 2.
