Common questions
- Can it struggle when one word has several meanings?
- Yes. A single stored description of a word can mix meanings that differ between sentences.
- Can the source collection affect the relationships?
- Yes. Different subjects and social patterns can change which words appear related.
- Does a close relationship prove two words mean the same thing?
- No. Words can appear in similar contexts while having different or opposite meanings.
