A database of etymological and derivational relationships between words in different languages.

Thesauri in many languages, obtained by translating Roget's Thesaurus using task-specific statistical techniques

A new more user-friendly browsing interface for the FrameNet lexical semantic resource, which describes the semantic roles of sentences and words.

One of the largest multilingual knowledge graphs, transforming the well-known WordNet database into a massively multilingual resource covering over 1 million words and several million named entities in a single semantically organized hierarchy. This is based on machine learning along with the MENTA extension based on Wikipedia. Our derivative project OpenWordNet-PT (GitHub) is being used by Google Translate.

Contributes information about words and other language-related entities to the Linked Data Web and Semantic Web, leading to a Web of Data in which the British Library, the Spanish National Library, and others have linked their data to Lexvo.org, and Lexvo.org in turn connects its own data to other valuable resources.

Most research papers are freely available (open access).

Numerous other resources are available.
