Definitions

Description

Inside pos tags, the definitions (plural) element may include several definition (singular) children, each describing a word sense. A definition contains a gloss and possibly one or more usage examples. Definitions may include labels that give attitudinal, diatopic, diachronic, diafrequential information or indicate that the word belongs to a specialized language.

Each gloss and example is available under 4 versions:

• the original wikicode;
• a plain text version;
• an XML version that formally encodes specific information: markups encode wiki typesetting (boldface, italic, etc.), dates, foreign words, mathematical/chemical formulae and external/inner links. See further description;
• a syntactic parsing of the text in CoNLL format produced by the Talismane parser.
