<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face=Arial><span style='font-size:12.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I would like to help but am unsure what you mean by an
ambiguous word. I can understand that a particular word in a sentence
might be ambiguous. For example, "Mary's a funny person" could
mean that she is comical or that she is strange. However, words are used in
some kind of context. Therefore, in the example, 'funny' is only ambiguous if I
have insufficient context to help me decide the particular use of
that polysemous word. In short, I believe we do not think of words
themselves as being ambiguous. What may be ambiguous (e.g. in need of
clarification) is the way a word/phrase is used in a particular context or
context of situation. Perhaps you can offer a few
examples. Apart from that, I can only offer the following from
my small data base where ambiguity is discussed:<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

words in English and their frequency<br>
</span></font><font face=Verdana><span style='font-family:Verdana'><br>
Hi all,<br>
<br>
I need to find this information (the proportion of ambiguous words in English
and their frequency).<br>
For example, we know that in French 8% of the words represent 30% of the
ambiguity.<br>
Of course, it's very rough, but it's only to have a rough idea.<br>
<br>
Can somebody help me with this (of course, I searched for a ref but could not
find anything precise)?<br>
<br>
Thank you in advance,<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
