Abstract: Contributive resources, such as Wikipedia, have proved to be valuable to Natural Language Processing or multilingual Information Retrieval applications. This work focusses on Wiktionary, the dictionary part of the resources sponsored by the Wikimedia foundation. In this article, we present our extraction of multilingual lexical data from Wiktionary data and to provide it to the community as a Multilingual Lexical Linked Open Data (MLLOD). This lexical resource is structured using the LEMON Model. This data, called DBnary, is registered at http://thedatahub.org/dataset/dbnary.

Keywords: Wiktionary, multilingual, lexical resource, LEMON, multilingual linguistic LOD
