Abstract

This paper introduces the second version of SemFi, a semantic database for Finnish with syntactic relations. The previous version of SemFi has been used in poem generation, and thus it has application area in NLG applications. In addition to extending SemFi, this paper describes and evaluates its translation into four endangered Uralic languages, Skolt Sami, Erzya, Moksha and Komi-Zyrian, all of which are greatly under-resourced. The translated dataset is known as SemUr.
