    Hi Sebastien,

    > Thank you very much for the information about WordNet. But I don't
    know if I can use the very useful linguistic information provided by
    WordNet to create my own lexicons. In fact, I need to have, in a txt
    file, simple lists such :
    >
    > physical entity
    > >organism
    > >>animal
    > >>>cat
    > >>>dog
    > >>plant
    > >>>rose
    >
    > I can't save all words ! So, I'd like to have either the ability to
    program Macros with WordNet or to find another lexicon.
    > The goal of this list is to contribute to find the new information
    in a discurse in order to model prosody.

    There are packages for the major scripting languages that allow you
    access to WordNet, I personally use the python package. If you search
    for that in the web, you'll find it. With the scripting languages you
    can easilly create something what you have in mind.

    If you install WordNet on Windows, you have the possibility to access
    the functionality and the data easily in even VisualBasic.

    best wishes

    Damir
