# wordnet

|
|
|
WordNet is a large lexical database of English, developed under the direction
|
|
of George A. Miller. Nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs are grouped into sets
|
|
of cognitive synonyms (synsets), each expressing a distinct concept. Synsets
|
|
are interlinked by means of conceptual-semantic and lexical relations. The
|
|
resulting network of meaningfully related words and concepts can be navigated
|
|
with the browser. WordNet is also freely and publicly available for download.
|
|
WordNet's structure makes it a useful tool for computational linguistics and
|
|
natural language processing.
