Abstract
The paper presents the principles of creating a database for research in lexical typology and describes the possibilities of its use as a linguistic resource. The database is built around semantic fields and frames, i. e. units of analysis in the frame-based theory of lexical typology. The database provides a universal format for storing the data; therefore, any project in lexical typology can be easily added. The database does not only store the data from previous research projects but allows anyone who wants to contribute to submit data via its web interface. The database includes examples provided by native speakers and manually annotated with translations, semantic fields, and frames, following the annotation principles adopted within the frame approach to lexical typology.
