summary
An efficient feature-specific front-end for WordNet.NET
remarks
Previously, the only readily-available interface to WordNet was the all-encompassing Search function which returns everything you could possibly ever want to know about the target word. Unfortunately, this approach is not very efficient for natural language processing applications that use WordNet as a database rather than a dictionary. Therefore, the Lexicon class is intended to provide a simple and straightforward interface to WordNet for very targeted functionality. (ie, what my application needs it to do). It also attempts to retrieve the desired information in the most efficient way possible.
