wngroups7

Overview

Some similar senses of verbs have been grouped by the lexicographers. This grouping is done statically in the lexicographer source files using the semantic pointer_symbol $. As with the noun senses, transitivity is used to combine groups of overlapping senses into the largest sense groups possible.

Notes

Coverage of verb groups is incomplete.
