Inspicio is an open‑vocabulary pipeline that links tokens in historical or low‑resource languages to synsets in the Open English WordNet without needing a source‑language sense inventory. It uses an instruction‑tuned LLM to generate two English translations, candidate dictionary definitions, and English lemmas, then performs hybrid retrieval combining dense definition similarity, sparse lemma matching, and Maximal Marginal Relevance re‑ranking. Evaluated on Latin, Ancient Greek, PREMOVE, and Italian data, the best configuration achieves 96% Recall@50 on a perception‑verb test set and remains competitive in out‑of‑domain and cross‑lingual scenarios.

Word Sense Disambiguation has advanced rapidly for English and a handful of well-resourced modern languages, but it continues to assume the existence of a sense inventory and a word-to-sense mapping i...

The paper tackles the problem of automatically generating dictionary definitions for learner’s dictionaries, focusing on simplicity and clarity. It introduces a new evaluation framework that uses large language models as judges, validated against human annotators with comparable agreement levels. The authors also present an iterative simplification approach that produces definitions scoring highly on their criteria and exhibiting lexical simplicity.
