Mapping ids (Concepticon, WOLD, NELex)

[pandunia-guru]

I created a new workspace file for creating final concept ids. The file is data/master.tsv and it includes final ids, initial ids, meaning definitions from Concepticon and ULD and ids from Concepticon, NELex, ULD and WOLD.

ULD (Universal Language Dictionary) is a new resource in this project. It was created by Rick (Rich) Harrison, who was a notable person in the auxiliary language scene in the 1990s. An example of this list is at Lingwa de Planeta's website. It includes translations to Esperanto, Novial, Lingwa de Planeta and Sambahsa. ULD is a logical tool for Panlexia to reach out to the auxiliary language scene. By the inclusion of this data, Panlexia has now first translations to constructed languages.

Perfect.

I can edit the file .tsv easily with Google Sheets, and you said on Discord it works with Libre Office too.

It works also with Excel. I only have to open the file in an editor, select all, copy, and paste in Excel, after having set all the column to text format.

Concept id mapping is now in data/id_map.tsv.

Today I found out that also Concepticon includes translations, see the files in the mappings folder.

Fantastic!

So the master file is not named "master" anymore, but is named id_map, which is clearer, with 3655 rows of concepts, and an id key column entirely filed, mostly linked in first place to the second column, PWN_id (for Princeton WordNet)

And this id_map table doesn't contain anymore the English definitions, which is a good idea, because it's much more readable, and potentially neutral, even if I will need to connect a second screen to see them on parallel

And there is a Conception file for French Very useful for me.

So good work, thanks! It's the moment to say the English expression "You make my day"!
