[Corpora-List] Arabic Lexical resources

[Majdi Sawalha]

Dear All,
 
I want to thank Francis Tyers and Elizabeth Beaudin for their replies to my request for Arabic lexical resources. They both suggested AraMorph : 
 
http://www.qamus.org/morphology.htmhttp://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/aramorph/aramorph-1.2.1.tar.gz
 
I have also found other Arabic language Lexicons in MS-Word format,  including several classical Arabic lexicons, 
at Al-Meshkat Islamic Library “مكتبة المشكاة الاسلامية”  http://www.almeshkat.net
 
NOTE if the Arabic titles are not formatted correctly in this message, then instead you can download this message in MS-word format from http://www.comp.leeds.ac.uk/arabic/lexicons.doc
