Abstract
The idea of automatic question answering system has a very long history. Despite constant improvement of the systems asking questions in the natural language requires very complex solutions. In this paper the DBpedia and YAGO are evaluated as a knowledge bases for simple class 1 and 2 question answering system. For this purpose a question answering system was designed and implemented. The proposed solution and the knowledge bases were evaluated and some remarks are given.
