Abstract(in English) This paper presents a research of word familiarity rate estimation for ‘Word List by Semantic Principles’. We collected the rating information for 7,832 adjectives in the ‘Word List by Semantic Principles’ via Yahoo! crowdsourcing. We asked 527 subject participants to judge the rating of ‘KNOWN’, ‘WRITE’, ‘READ’, ‘SPEAK’, and ‘LISTEN’ by their introspection. Each word has the rating information by 10 people. The word familiarity rates are estimated by Bayesian linear mixed models. We also explore the rating by the semantic labels of ‘Word List by Semantic Principles’.
