I'm looking to write a simple program to extract stuff from Project
Gutenberg's books (--of whivh there are tens ofthousands thanks to
Michael HArt and his volunteers). There is no collection of metaphors
in
the public domain, and it wouldn't take that much coding if there were a
database with
Advertising
word, (grammatical type), e.g.
foot, n
love, n
run, v
ugly, adj
etc.
It occured to me that I might take the CIDE/GCIDE database and somehow
scrounge the world-list above from that. I don't think it is available
on Linux. Dunno. Nutshell, it would be a major help to writers to have
this kind of stuff online instead of a 17-pound book... .
Thanks for ideas, as well as code snippets!
