Abstract(in English) In order to realize high-quality semantic analysis in Japanese-to-English machine translation, we proposed the criteria to select and collect words to build the semantic word dictionaries. We collected a total of 400,000 words, including 200,000 proper nouns and 50,000 technical terms, based on these criteria. We gave each word morphological information, semantic information such as part-of-speech, and semantic categories from about 3,000 attributes. These dictionaries are used in the semantic analysis process in the machine translation system, ALT-J/E.
