This package loads all of WordNet into memory. It's not terribly expensive, but it may not be suitable for all developers.
Wordnet Data
The constructor DB can optionally take a path to a WordNet directory, containing a dict folder.
This should work for any release of WordNet.
If you do not specify such a path, WordNet 3.0 will automatically be downloaded the first time you call DB().
It will only be downloaded once.
See DataDeps.jl's readme for more information.
