The Hallig-Wartburg Ontology is a lightweight ontology expressed in OWL. It is based on the so-called Hallig-Wartburg, an extra-linguistic, controlled vocabulary with a hierarchically structured set of concepts: Rudolf Hallig and Walther von Wartburg, Begriffssystem als Grundlage für die Lexikographie / Système raisonné des concepts pour servir de base à la lexicographie, Berlin (Akademie-Verlag), [1952] 1963; Hallig-Wartburg is a conceptual scheme used in many historical linguistic resources as an onomasiological structuring means. Hallig-Wartburg’s concepts are denoted by French non-lexicalised categories, e.g., `L'univers', `Le ciel et l'atmosphère', and `Le ciel et les corps célestes', and, additionally, the concepts are identified by a system of capital letters between A and C, followed by Roman numerals, Arabic lower case letters, etc.: `A', `A I', `B II h', etc., modelled as Hallig-Wartburg Identification Scheme within the ontology.
