DESCRIPTION
       This section of the WordNet Reference Manual contains manual pages that
       describe the formats of the various files included in different WordNet
       3.0 packages.

NOMENCLATURE
       All files are in ASCII.  Fields are generally separated by one space,
       unless otherwise noted, and each line is terminated with a newline
       character.  In the file format descriptions, terms in italics refer to
       field names.  Characters or strings in boldface represent an actual
       character or string as it appears in the file.  Items enclosed in
       italicized square brackets ([  ]) may not be present.  Since several
       files contain fields that have the identical meaning, field names are
       consistently defined.  For example, several WordNet files contain one
       or more synset_offset fields.  In each case, the definition of
       synset_offset is identical.
