SimLex-999 Slovenian translation SimLex-999-sl 1.0

The resource contains English SimLex-999 (Hill et al. 2015) and their Slovene translations. In the translation process, the word pairs were first translated by two translators independently, and next, for the examples where the translations differed, the final translations were chosen in a consensus meeting. The translators had also access to Croatian Simlex-999 translations (Mrksic et al. 2017) and received translation guidelines (see next sheet) inspired by guidelines of Multi-SimLex (Vulic et al. 2020). The resources was used for building the CoSimLex resource (Armendariz et al. 2020).The list contains English original pair of words (Word1 and Word2), their part-of-speech, followed by Slovene translations (Trans1 and Trans2). The last column Comment relates to special cases: - multiword_translation -> translators were asked to opt for single-word equivalents, in some cases the only appropriate translation was a multi-word expression (for example, birthday -> rojstni dan).- no_translation -> pairs without a proper translation, i.e. translation pair contains two identical words. Although the translators were asked to find two different translations for the words, in a few examples that was not possible. For example, for the English pair taxi and cab, only taksi was considered a good Slovene equivalent.- duplicated_translation -> in cases where a pair of words is repeated for two different English original pairs, both occurrences are marked as duplicate translations.- duplicated_original -> in one case, the original word pair was a duplicate, which is also marked.Cite: If you use the dataset, please cite the Clarin handle and the following paper: Armendariz, Carlos Santos, Purver, Matthew, Ulcar, Matej, Pollak, Senja, Ljubesic, Nikola, Granroth-Wilding, Mark, and Vaik, Kristiina (2020).
