Language Graph synonym annotations
The following annotations can be applied to individual sensekeys within a synset. Not all sensekeys need to have an annotation. More than one annotation can be applied to a sensekey (for example, turnip_head/N1 is both idiomatic and derogatory).
|
Slang |
Used for slang sensekeys that are ambiguous. For example, pad/N6, meaning lodging is a slang term that is ambiguous, given the many other meanings of the word 'pad'. |
| Regional | Used for sensekeys that are particular to a certain region. For example, flat/N7, which means 'apartment' in the UK. |
| Archaic | Used for sensekeys that are no longer in current English usage. For example, sooth/N1 or stripling/N1. |
| Technical | Used for sensekeys that have a technical meaning that is relatively infrequent, and only likely to occur in a given topical context *and* for which the word or words that it is made of are likely to mean something else in most contexts. For example, lake/N3 which is a colourant/pigment and it only likely to occur in very specific contexts, in this case, fine_art/N1. Synsets with technical sensekeys in them should always have a category link to the category that describes the context in which they occur. |
| Vulgar | Used for vulgar sensekeys. For example, bang/V5 (synonym of have_sex_with/V1). |
| Unlikely | Used in two separate cases: a) senses of lemmas that are infrequent relative to other senses of that lemma b) sense keys that are infrequent relative to their synonyms or hypernyms. |
| Idiomatic | Used for figures of speech and sayings. Examples: on_the_tip_of_PPRON_tongue/D1, have_a_sinking_feeling/V1. |
| Derogatory | Used for derogatory sensekeys. |
| No Paraphrase | Used for sensekeys that will not be used to generate a paraphrase. |
