Here's a version of VerbNet which is completely transformed into a much easier to understand format. The entire class hierarchy is flattened out so that properties that were shared among subclasses are now duplicated into them, and the structure is much simpler and I hope easier to understand. Each item should be self evident and not require cross referencing things all over the place. Also, everything is one file. Please feel free to ask if you need further explanation, maybe I'll be able to make it even easier to use.

Thank you! This is much clearer with the "NP V" information in it.

Thanks very much

Here's a good list of dictionaries and things for anyone else.

I'm going to play with WordsAPI (2,500 free request per day free)  and also Oxford that allow 3000 requests a month for free.

Hmm, well WordsAPI just seems to be WordNet. It is useful if you can't host I suppose.

I'm trying to expand the dictionary the bot uses so I had attempted to parse all the WordNet database files myself, but it was far easier to just use this :

http://wnsql.sourceforge.net/

I probably saved a week by using that.

Now I see all the other gubbins in there I think it will do just fine.
