Enhancing an English/Korean dictionary
In this paper, we introduce a machine-tractable Korean/English lexicon. We use engdic, an open source dictionary. engdic is an English-Korean dictionary for human use. The formatting is sometimes inconsistent, and there is missing or duplicated information, therefore it is not ready for machine use....
