The English dictionaries are used, along with the English grammars, in the process of UNLization and NLization with IAN and EUGENE, respectively. They follow the UNL Dictionary Specs and are provided in two different formats:
- The ENG-UNL Dictionary, to be used in UNLization (IAN), is presented in the enumerative format, i.e., it brings all word forms ("die","dies","dying","dead") and not only base forms
- The UNL-ENG Dictionary, to be used in NLization (EUGENE), is presented in the generative format, i.e., it brings only base forms ("die") along with the instructions to generate the corresponding inflections
