Ontologies are playing an important role in semantic web which is emerging as a next stage of the web revolution because various kinds of metadata are described in ontologies. Correspondingly, many query languages like SPARQL, RDQL etc. have been proposed for querying these ontologies. But users have to know the structures and resource names of ontologies completely to get search results even if they have expertise on complex formal logic and syntax of the query languages. Especially, casual users do not know the resource names and may use different words from resource names when they write their query language. This vocabulary gap problem have to be solved to raise the success rate. In this paper, an approach for translating user's search words to corresponding resource names has been proposed. This approach uses semantic similarity between user created search words and ontology resource names.
