Description:		This lexicon contains multiword entries which are not strictly named entities, but contain a word which is. For example, German shepherd is an entry in this lexicon, since many dogs of this breed exist. But, the adjective German makes it a named entity in a broader sense. Accordingly, there are many multiword units in the lexicon which contain ethnonyms. Similarly, the unit Planck's law belongs to this lexicon as well.Certain natural terms like biological species and substances, which are sometimes considered named entities, are not included in the lexicon.LanguagesThe lexicon consists of 26,155 parallel named entities in seven languages: English and six South Slavic ones: Bosnian, Bulgarian, Croatian, Macedonian, Serbian, and Slovenian.Slovenian, Croatian and Bosnian are written in Latin script, Macedonian and Bulgarian in Cyrillic. Serbian language is specific since it may come in two scripts (Cyrillic and Latin) and two dialects (ekavica and ijekavica). This lexicon takes Serbian ekavica variant and its Cyrillic script.ClassificationThe tags used for named entities are: ORGANIZATION, LOCATION, PERSON, PRODUCT and MISC. Each named entity belongs to one of these classes.
