WordNet

• Description: WordNet is an on-line lexical reference system in which English nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs are organized into synonym sets, each representing one underlying lexical concept. Different relations link the synonym sets.
  WordNet was developed in the Cognitive Science Laboratory at Princeton University under the direction of Professor George Miller.
