Amelioration of the interactive dictionary of arabic language

摘要

© Technomathematics Research Foundation.Despite the recognition of the Arabic language by the United Nations and its active development, there are no powerful interactive dictionaries to accompany efficiently this development. In addition, most of the existing dictionaries require knowledge of morphological rules to get the meaning of words. We studied in this paper the "Interactive Dictionary of Arabic Language". This is, in our knowledge, the only open source dictionary project that provides morphological information in addition to the meaning of the input Arabic word. By analyzing the dictionary, we noticed that it has a great weakness in the morphological analysis of the input word. Thus, we have improved the morphological analysis step by developing a module based on the lemma extraction step of the system "Al-Khalil 2". In addition, we expanded the database with the words available in the "Almusotako$if" dictionary.
