Notes
- It develops an ontology for linguistic concepts to ease the sharing of annotated linguistic data and provides for searching and browsing of inhomogeneous corpora.
- Its goal was to develop a way to conserve the rich linguistic concepts of (endangered) languages.
- Its focus was on creating an ontology that can deal with dynamic, changing data and with different source material.
- It is related to (Farrar & Langendoen, 2003) ⇒ Scott Farrar and D. Terence Langendoen (2003) "A linguistic ontology for the Semantic Web." GLOT International, 7(3)
- QUOTE: Creating a comprehensive ontology that can be useful to the future linguistic community of practice is a daunting task, even with the help of a broad upper model such as SUMO. We organize linguistically related concepts into four major domains: expressions, grammar, data constructs, and metaconcepts.

Abstract
As part of a project called Electronic Metastructure for Endangered Languages Data (EMELD), we have developed an ontology of concepts that encompasses a wide range of linguistic phenomena. The idea was initially conceived to facilitate both the knowledge sharing of annotated linguistic data and the searching of disparate language corpora. Such an ontology, however, is needed outside of the EMELD project for enhancing performance of the Semantic Web, for developing expert systems capable of linguistic analysis, and for providing a theory-neutral backbone in the processing of scientific documents pertaining to the linguistics domain. With an eye toward acceptance by the knowledge engineering community in general, we built the linguistic ontologyon top of the Standard Upper Merged Ontology (SUMO).
