This paper describes the LiITA Knowledge Base of interoperable linguistic resources for Italian.By adhering to the Linked Open Data principles, LiITA ensures and facilitates interoperability between distributed resources. The paper outlines the lemma-centered architecture of the Knowledge Base and details its core component: the Lemma Bank, a collection of Italian lemmas designed to interlink distributed lexical and textual resources.

This paper presents the integration of the Lexicala Latin–French Dictionary into the LiLa Knowledge Base of linguistic resources for Latin made interoperable through their publication as Linked Open Data. The entries of the dictionary are linked to the large collection of Latin lemmas of LiLa (Lemma Bank), enabling interaction with the other resources published therein. The paper details the data modelling process, the linking methodology, and a couple of practical use cases, showing how interlinking resources via LOD can support advancement in (multilingual) linguistic research.

This paper describes the release as Linguistic Linked Open Data of DynaMorphPro, a lexical resource recording loanwords, conversions and class-shifts from Latin to Old Italian. We show how existing vocabularies are reused and integrated to allow for a rich semantic representation of these data. Our main reference is the OntoLex-lemon model for lexical information, but classes and properties from many other ontologies are also reused to express other aspects. In particular, we identify the CIDOC Concept Reference Model as the ideal tool to convey chronological information on historical processes of lexical innovation and change, and describe how it can be integrated with OntoLex-lemon.

This paper addresses the representation of ellipsis in dependency syntax, proposing both a theoretical and a practical workflow for its analysis and annotation in treebanks, following the state-of-the-art Universal Dependencies framework. We discuss the challenges of annotating ellipsis, with a focus on predicate ellipsis and its representation in dependency treebanks, and emphasize the importance of accounting for such phenomena for syntactic analysis and machine learning applications. We present a case study based on the Italian-Old treebank, demonstrating the applicability of the proposed workflows and invite the community to participate in this initiative with their own languages.

This paper presents preliminary results of the development of the Egyptian-UJaen treebank, the first dependency treebank created for pre-Coptic Egyptian in Universal Dependencies. It describes the current state of the treebank, explains the approach adopted for the morphosyntactic annotation and discusses some issues concerning the adoption of the CoNLL-U format for the annotation of Egyptian texts. This treebank will surely become a useful linguistic tool for understanding the synchronic and dia- chronic use of pre-Coptic Egyptian.
