Abstract
The present study presents the lexical category analysis of the Thousand-Character Text and Roget’s Thesaurus. Through preprocessing, the Thousand-Character Text and Roget’s Thesaurus have been built into databases. In addition, for easier analysis and more efficient research, we have developed a system to search Roget’s Thesaurus for the categories corresponding to Chinese characters in the Thousand-Character Text. According to the results of this study, most of the 39 sections of Roget’s Thesaurus except the ’Creative Thought’ section were relevant to Chinese characters in the Thousand-Character Text. Three sections ’Space in General’, ’Dimensions’ and ’Matter in General’ have higher mapping rate. The correlation coefficient is also around 0.94, showing high category relevancy on the section level between the Thousand-Character Text and Roget’s Thesaurus.
