Re: WordNet modelling in Lemon and SKOS

Dear John,

thanks for this. I have some doubts/questions regarding this example 
that may be due to the fact that I have missed some telcos.
If that is the case, my apologies.

Are there no mechanisims in lemon to say that catted is the past 
participle form of "to cat", and cating is the gerund form. I think that 
the use of canonical form vs. other form is well suited for nouns, but 
somehow strange for verbs, what do you think?

Regarding the use of skos, if I understand it correctly, it is intended 
to represent the lexical relations in Wordnet, right? For example, the 
hypernonymy-hyponymy relation would correspond to the skos:broader or 
skos:narrower relations. Is that so? In this way, skos would be used for 
the conceptual part, I mean, for transforming the lexical relations into 
ontological relations?

Howerver, for the definition or gloss, shouldn't we use 
lemon:definition. In this way, we would be using SKOS for the conceptual 
part and lemon for the lexical-linguistic part, would that be the idea? 
As I said, maybe I am missing something.

Finally, wouldn't it be nice to represent in the lemon:sense class that 
"to cat" is the colloquial use for vomiting? I think that since we are 
able to represent such contextual restrictions, we would really make a 
difference by doing it, don't you think so?

Just my two cents!
Best,
Elena.
