Abstract
Abstract: In social media, users have the privilege of connecting with people and extensively communicate, share information, discuss topics of recent trends. Friendster, LinkedIn, Instagram, Twitter are some media through which users can perform the activities as mentioned earlier. Twitter is a well-known microblog which allows user to express their opinion or sentiment in the form of tweets within maximum length of 140 characters. The sentiment of the user can be analyzed and interpreted using the concept called Sentiment Analysis (SA).Twitter is widely used in almost all parts of the world thus ensures the presence of multilingual tweets in expressing their sentiments. In this paper, Sentiment Analysis is employed to determine the polarity of English and Tamil tweets, which is therefore bilingual and it is further subjected to word sense disambiguation to figure out the contextual usage and further the sentiment of the words are classified using the Support Vector Machine which derives the polarity value of the words as positive, negative and neutral.
