WordNet is a lexical database of semantic relations between words in more than 200 languages.[2] WordNet links words into semantic relations including synonyms, hyponyms, and meronyms. The synonyms are grouped into synsets with short definitions and usage examples. WordNet can thus be seen as a combination and extension of a dictionary and thesaurus. While it is accessible to human users via a web browser,[3] its primary use is in automatic text analysis and artificial intelligence applications. WordNet was first created in the English language[4] and the English WordNet database and software tools have been released under a BSD style license and are freely available for download from that WordNet website.
