Hi Denny,

Thank you very much for this fantastic update about the intentions of
supporting a semantic dictionary in Wikidata :)
Just a minor correction: I think instead of "word", it should be
"expression" because some languages don't follow the same logic.

On the other hand, do you think it would be possible to accommodate grammar
rules too?
I have added some people from Apertium that might have some insights about
it.

Cheers,
Micru
