SUMO has been completely aligned to WordNet and has been proposed as the initial version of an eventual Standard Upper Ontology (SUO).
SUMO can be browsed online and can be freely downloaded (the language in which this ontology is expressed is SUO-KIF, a version of the Knowledge Interchange Format, but is also available in other formats, including DAML, LOOM, XML, and Protege).
Recent studies in the word sense disambiguation area have shown that domain information is very useful for sense discrimination and, in general, to deal with ambiguity in texts.

 Standard Upper Ontology Working Group - Suggested Upper Merged Ontology
The SUMO starter document was created at Teknowledge by Ian Niles and Adam Pease (the principal investigator), with a contribution by Chris Menzel.
The SUMO began as a synthesis of a wide range of publicly available formal content (please see a partial history of versions), and this synthesis was guided by feedback from the SUO Working Group.
The SUMO provides a foundation for middle-level and domain ontologies, and its purpose is to promote data interoperability, information retrieval, automated inference, and natural language processing.

By interacting with such a browser, the user would be able to see all SUMO concepts that are related to natural language terms of interest, and this should make it much easier for him/her to do knowledge engineering and data modeling tasks with the ontology.
In either case, the document representations consisting of SUMO concepts could then be used to create automatically generated summaries or they could be used to facilitate semantic searching.
As we proceed in assigning SUMO concepts to WordNet synsets, we will come across cases where the most specific subsumer in the SUMO for a given synset is too broad in meaning.

 Semantic Technology: A Minimalist Upper Ontology
By associating it (either formally or just by a reference in the documentation) as like a SUMO concept, it can tell you which kind of foot I mean.
One cheap and quick way to define a minimalist upper ontology would be "take your favorite upper ontology (such as SUMO) and use only the first X layers" where X is a small number, perhaps 4.
In that case, with SUMO you might consider Entity -> Abstract -> Quantity -> Number as your most granular upper ontology concept, and you wouldn't go to the length of Entity -> Abstract -> Quantity -> Number -> ImaginaryNumber.

 François-Régis Chaumartin
This is a preliminary report on a system for word sense disambiguation (WSD) for unrestricted vocabulary, which requires no training on tagged text.
The “disambiguating power” of the system comes from three sources: (A) Parsing by English Slot Grammar (ESG), (B) the WordNet relation system, and (C) the WordNet sense frequency data.
To achieve that, the divide-and-conquer strategy first disambiguates the roles of the link words in the sentence and segments the sentence based on these roles.

 FOIS 2006 - Linking FrameNet to the SUMO Ontology   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-04)
This supports the use of arbitrary class expressions and axioms, which are necessary given inherent differences between ontologies and lexical resources.
Our objective is to link an ST to SUMO classes equivalent to the ST, without restricting the links to any particular domain.
By relating FrameNet and SUMO we have realized significant benefits, such as identifying areas which can be improved in both products.

 Japanese language - Facts, Information, and Encyclopedia Reference article
Additionally, many native Japanese words have become commonplace in English, partly due to Japan's international prominence and also due to the popularity of many Japanese cultural exports.
Words such as sushi, judo, karate, sumo, karaoke, origami, samurai, haiku, ninja, sayonara, rickshaw (from 人力車 jinrikisha), futon, bento, and many others have become an integral part of the English language.
Modern Japanese is written in a mixture of three main scripts: kanji, characters of Chinese origin used to represent both Chinese loanwords into Japanese and a number of native Japanese morphemes; and two syllabaries: hiragana and katakana.

If larger centralized database is eventually needed, then SUMO (Suggested Upper Merged Ontology) to unify disparate Semantic Web ontologies as discussed in (Pease et al 2002) could be used.
The main motivation behind this research is to improve the accuracy of linguistic parsers to benefit linguistic applications used in translation and language learning and other tasks, which use parsers for disambiguation.
However, a word-based disambiguation error rate as small as 4 % is high enough to completely change the meaning of an average-length sentence translating into a 56% per-sentence error rate (Abney 1996).

In some cases, a pronoun can be introduced to specify the missing information (see the pronouns section, below, for a list).
If the pronoun isn't clear, however, or isn't enough to disambiguate roles (like when both the subject and the direct object are 3rd person singular), then a hierarchy of "animacy" takes over.
Generally it works on the principle that everyone follows the same basic assumptions for who is likely to do what to who.
