"A Wordnet from the Ground Up" by Maciej Piasecki, Stan Szpakowicz and
Bartosz Broda (ISBN 978-83-7493-476-3)

A language without a wordnet is at a severe disadvantage. We report on
the initial stages of a long-term project to create a similar resource
for Polish. We have envisaged a book for many audiences. The most
immediate "clientele" are people who work with wordnets and on
wordnets.  We have attempted to make our experience with one language
approachable to people who need not know anything about that
language. Computing professionals who work with Polish texts may find
the technical discussion interesting. Linguists who use computers in
their study may be encouraged to acquire yet another element of their
research workbench. Researchers who specialise in statistical method
of semantic analysis of texts may consider our comprehensive overview
of such methods useful.

There was no Polish wordnet when our work began several years ago. We
chose to construct the resource from the ground up rather than
translate the English WordNet first and then labouriously adapt it to
the significantly different realities of the Polish language.
