We present in this paper an effort to build an AMR (Abstract Meaning Representation) annotated corpus (a semantic bank) for Brazilian Portuguese. AMR is a recent and prominent meaning representation with good acceptance and several applications in the Natural Language Processing area. Following what has been done for other languages, and using an alignment-based approach for annotation, we annotated the Little Prince book, which went into the public domain and explored some language-specific annotation issues.

Abstract
We present in this paper an effort to build an AMR (Abstract Meaning Representation) annotated corpus (a semantic bank) for Brazilian Portuguese. AMR is a recent and prominent meaning representation with good acceptance and several applications in the Natural Language Processing area. Following what has been done for other languages, and using an alignment-based approach for annotation, we annotated the Little Prince book, which went into the public domain and explored some language-specific annotation issues.
