Abstract

In this paper we describe the process of Russian and Romanian WordNet-Affect creation. WordNet-Affect is a lexical resource created on the basis of the Princeton WordNet which contains information about the emotions that the words convey. It is organized in six basic emotions: anger, disgust, fear, joy, sadness, surprise. We translated the WordNet-Affect synsets into Russian and Romanian and created an aligned English – Romanian – Russian lexical resource. The resource is freely available for research purposes.
