This is rather nice to see...
==========================================
The Natural Language Processing Group of the Computer
Science and Engineering Department, IIT Bombay has
developed the Hindi Wordnet which is a crucial resource
for NLP involving Indian Languages. The resource follows
the Princeton Wordnet's design, but incorporates Hindi
specific features. There are more than 25000 synsets and
about 58000 words in the lexical database. Synsets are linked
with all conventional lexical and semantic relations as well
as some Hindi specific relations.
There has been a great demand for this resource which has
been created mainly through government support. We decided
to make it freely downloadable for research purposes.
Hindi Wordnet is available at the URL
http://www.cfilt.iitb.ac.in/wordnet/webhwn/
The download consists of an installable which on installing
creates a directory containing the wordnet data and the
APIs along with documentation.
