Description:

"ISO 24613:2008 describes the Lexical Markup Framework (LMF), a metamodel for representing data in lexical databases used with monolingual and multilingual computer applications.

LMF provides mechanisms that allow the development and integration of a variety of electronic lexical resource types. These mechanisms will present existing lexicons as far as possible. If this is impossible, problematic information will be identified and isolated." (Abstract, ISO 24613:2008)
