# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

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