Abstract

Ontology is defined as the specification of concepts. Bilingual ontology describes the specifications of concepts in two
languages. This paper proposes a description of the bilingual ontology (Arabic-English) by using a Protégé. This
description contains the hierarchy of Arabic-English concepts such as noun and verb. The hierarchy is presented as an
ontology graph of Arabic-English noun and verb concepts.
