Partial cognates are pairs of words in two languages that have the same meaning in some, but not all contexts. Detecting the
actual meaning of a partial cognate in context can be useful for Machine Translation tools and for Computer-Assisted Language
Learning tools. We propose a supervised and a semi-supervised method to disambiguate partial cognates between two languages:
French and English. The methods use only automatically-labeled data; therefore they can be applied to other pairs of languages
as well. The aim of our work is to automatically detect the meaning of a French partial cognate word in a specific context. |
