Descrizione

It is a cross-linguistic ontology of action. Using spoken corpora, 1,010 high-frequency action concepts have been identified and visually represented with prototypical scenes. The ontology allows the definition of cross-linguistic correspondences between verbs and actions in English, Italian, Chinese and Spanish. Thanks to the visual representation of the action concepts identified, IMAG-Act can be potentially extended to any language.
