Project description:

Wordnet is the biggest Polish wordnet. A wordnet is a semantic network, whose nodes are lexical units, while threads connecting the whole
- semantic relations between lexical units. Those semantic relations are for instance

hypernymy/hyponymy = a relation which links a word of a more general meaning (kot – 'cat') with a word of a more specific meaning (tygrys – 'tiger') (every tiger belongs to the feline family); meronymy/holonymy = a relation denoting a part and a whole, e.g. zderzak
- 'bumper' – samochód
- 'car' (cars have bumpers); antonymy
- a relation of the semantic opposition, e.g. wejść – 'enter' – wyjść
- 'leave', żonaty – 'married' – kawaler -'bachelor' (a detailed list of lexical relations is given here [link]. Lexical units which enter the same lexico-semantic relations (but not the same derivational relations) are treated as synonyms and linked into synsets that is synonym sets.

The first ever wordnet (WordNet) was built in 1980s at Princeton University. Since that time hundreds of research teams have started the construction of wordnets for different languages, and among them our Languages Technologies Research Group G.4.19 at Wrocław University of Technology. In 2009 the first version of plWordNet was made available on the Internet. Similarly to its predecessor – Princeton WordNet – the current 2.0 version of plWordNet is available on the open licence
