302occur. Considering the objectives and the current state of JuriDiCo, a number of avenuesfor its future development could be pursued.Firstly, terms belonging to parts of speech other than verbs, such as nouns,adjectives and adverbs could be included in the resource. These could be describedfollowing the same methodology and be grouped together into the frames that have alreadybeen identified or into new frames. The fact that a given frame may group together termsbelonging to several parts of speech should allow users to access a wider choice ofpossibilities for expressing a given concept. In addition, as frames can group together termsbelonging to distinct languages, the inclusion of terms other than verbs can be particularlyinteresting for translators because this provides them with more options for choosing thenecessary equivalents.Secondly, the corpus used to select and document the specialized verbs that can beconsulted in JuriDiCo could be extended by including other legal genres. The inclusion ofother genres of texts would allow for a larger coverage of the subject field of law as well asits terminology. It could be relevant to include a field in the frame entries that describes thegenres of texts that typically evoke the frame that is being described.Thirdly, the identification of frames and the activity of grouping together the termsinto them seem to suggest that some frames may be related to other frames because theyhave some core FEs in common (section 5.2.3). By implication, the terms grouped togetherinto frames that have a relation to other frames have high chances of being related to eachother. Thus, it would be relevant to study the relations between the frames by following theFrameNet methodology. This would allow for a better representation of the specializedfield.
