SynSemClass 5.1

The SynSemClass synonym verb lexicon version 5.1 is a multilingual resource that enriches previous editions of this event-type ontology with a new language, Spanish. The existing languages, English, Czech and German, are further substantially extended by a larger number of classes. SSC 5.1 data also contain lists (in a separate removed_cms.zip file) with originally (pre-)proposed but later rejected class members. All languages are organized into classes and have links to other lexical sources. In addition to the existing links, links to Spanish sources have been added. The major change against v5.0 is that links to English Princeton Wordnet and to German GUP point to their new versions and new websites that host them. English Wordnet now links to the Open English Wordnet, a fork of the Princeton WordNet developed under an open source methodology and released through the Open English Wordnet website (https://en-word.net/). German Universal PropBank (GUP) is now part of the Universal Propbanks and can be viewed at https://github.com/UniversalDependencies/UD_German-GSD. The individual languages are thus now linked as follows: The Spanish entries are linked to ADESSE (http://adesse.uvigo.es/), Spanish SenSem (http://grial.edu.es/sensem/lexico?idioma=en), Spanish WordNet (https://adimen.ehu.eus/cgi-bin/wei/public/wei.consult.perl), AnCora (https://clic.ub.edu/corpus/en/ancoraverb_es), and Spanish FrameNet (http://sfn.spanishfn.org/SFNreports.php). The English entries are linked to EngVallex (http://hdl.handle.net/11858/00-097C-0000-0023-4337-2), CzEngVallex (http://hdl.handle.net/11234/1-1512), FrameNet (https://framenet.icsi.berkeley.edu/), VerbNet (https://uvi.colorado.edu/ and http://verbs.colorado.edu/verbnet/index.html), PropBank (http://propbank.github.io/), Ontonotes (http://clear.colorado.edu/compsem/index.php?page=lexicalresources&sub=ontonotes), and the Open English Wordnet (https://en-word.net/). The Czech entries are linked to PDT-Vallex (http://hdl.handle.net/11858/00-097C-0000-0023-4338-F), Vallex (http://hdl.handle.net/11234/1-3524), and CzEngVallex (http://hdl.handle.net/11234/1-1512). The German entries are linked to Woxikon (https://synonyme.woxikon.de), E-VALBU (https://grammis.ids-mannheim.de/verbvalenz), and GUP (https://github.com/UniversalDependencies/UD_German-GSD).
