Re:Unsupervised Machine Translation Using Monolingual Corpor... by ragebol on Friday November 03, 2017 @07:46AM (#15618361)
The example I've been thinking about was 'pain', which, according to Wikipedia, is "an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage." The native Dutch word "Gezelligheid" has no direct English translation and thus apparently has a wiki page in English [0]. Now I wonder what the relevance is of the distance between word vectors from different languages relating to nearly the same concept (e.g Gezelligheid to Cozyness)
