Our study targets interoperable semantic annotation of CulturalHeritage or eHumanities texts in German and Hungarian. A semantic resourcewe focus on is the Thompson Motif-index of folk-literature (TMI), the labels ofwhich are available only in English. We investigate the use lexical data on theWeb in German and Hungarian for supporting semi-automatic translation ofTMI: lexical resources offered by Wiktionary accessed via the Lexvo service,and discuss shortcomings of those resources. An approach for mapping theXML dump of Wiktionary onto a TEI and MAF compliant data is presented,whereby we discuss improvements in the representation of Wiktionary data forexploiting its multilingual value within the LOD framework.
