Standoff Files
The following additional "standoff" files providing further semantic information to supplement the WordNet 3.0 release:
- The Morphosemantic Database (Semantic relations between morphologically related nouns and verbs)
WordNet3.0 contains derivational links connecting noun and verb senses, e.g., employment#n1-employ#v2. morphosemantic-links.xls repeats these links, but also give the semantic type of the relationship. The database uses 14 semantic relations, as listed in the README file below.
