Konkani Wordnet Resources

Konkani is a low-resource Indo-Aryan language spoken along the western coast of India, characterized by significant dialectal variation, multi-script usage, and limited standardized computational resources. This paper presents a consolidated and analysis-ready lexical resource derived from the Konkani Wordnet, built under the IndoWordNet framework. The resource comprises 32,370 synsets, 37,719 unique lexical entries, 32,370 glosses, and 33,318 example sentences, enriched with pronunciations, semantic relations, and illustrative examples. We describe the systematic extraction, normalization, and structural integration of wordnet data, resolving identifier inconsistencies and ensuring semantic coherence across distributed lexical files. To demonstrate the practical utility of this resource, we present an API-based bilingual vocabulary exercise generation system that leverages shared synset identifiers to automatically produce semantically aligned Hindi–Konkani word pairs for e-learning applications. The resulting resource enhances accessibility, reproducibility, and computational readiness for NLP tasks, while providing a foundational infrastructure for developing technology-driven teaching and learning tools for Konkani.
