A corpus-based study of semantic neology of the covid-19 pandemic
Detection of semantic neology, or the emergence of new meanings in existing words, is a challenging task because it is not related to formal changes as in formal neology. In this paper, we make a series of studies to detect semantic neology in Spanish nouns in 2022, a year in which covid-19 pandemic still existed, but also other important global events, such as the Ukraine war, or economic inflation. We compare a corpus of texts from 2022 to a pr…
New verbs and dictionaries
The appearance of new verbs can be observed regularly, but verbs are not frequently investigated in neology, and they are difficult to detect automatically. In this study, a corpus-based method is proposed to detect Spanish verbs with a series of algorithms that analyse the morphology of regular verbs. The vocabulary was drawn from a large corpus and contrasted with a major dictionary of Spanish. Then, a series of filters were applied to distingu…
Corpus-Based Methods for Recognizing the Gender of Anthroponyms
This paper presents a series of methods for automatically determining the gender of proper names, based on their co-occurrence with words and grammatical features in a large corpus. Although the results obtained were for Spanish given names, the method presented here can be easily replicated and used for names in other languages. Most methods reported in the literature use pre-existing lists of first names that require costly manual processing an…

De nuevo sobre la gramática en el diccionario
This paper is a study about the way in which se structures are represented in 20 verb entries of nine dictionaries of Spanish language. There is a large number of these structures and they are problematic for native and non native speakers. Verbs of the analysis are middle-high frequency and, in the most part of the cases, very polysemous, and this allows to observe interconnections between the different se structures and the different meanings o…
Systematising corpus-based definitions in second language lexicography
This study explores the application of a semantic analysis methodology to the creation of definitions of learners' dictionaries. Defining words is a delicate art, traditionally left to the general writing skills of the lexicographer, introspection, or even intuition. In the past decades, many efforts have been directed towards systematising the technique, particularly in the pedagogical dictionaries momentum. In this paper, we try to demonstrate …
