Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent evidence suggests that the speech children hear early in development is rich in word sense ambiguity, and also that children's early vocabularies are populated by ambiguous words. |
| Approach: | They sense-tagged 53 corpora of American and English speech directed to 958 target children up to 59 months of age and selected target senses that they know young children understand. |
| Outcome: | The sense-tagged corpus ChiSense-12 was used to examine the role of verb-event structure in child word sense disambiguation. |
