In many languages like Arabic, diacritics are used to specify pronunciations as well as meanings. Such diacritics are often omitted in written text, increasing the number of possible pronunciations and meanings for a word. This results in a…

Parsing the Arabic language is a difficult task given the specificities of this language and given the scarcity of digital resources (grammars and annotated corpora). In this paper, we suggest a method for Arabic parsing based on supervised…

In this paper, we present an ongoing effort in lexical semantic analysis and annotation of Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) text, a semi automatic annotation tool concerned with the morphologic, syntactic, and semantic levels of description.
