In the 20th century, in the field of information systems, semantic systems were created in order to increase the possibility of information search, improve automatic translation systems, achieve component analysis of texts, and fully reflect the language lexicon. In particular, three paradigms aimed at describing knowledge in a wide range of subject areas were created: information-search thesauri, WordNet and linguistic resources created on its basis, and ontologies. It is noteworthy that the WordNet English lexical database served as the main source for lexicographic databases of other languages. This article is about the possibilities of Princeton WordNet (PWN).
