Very Large Lexicons from the WWW

Three unrelated technological advances make it possible to conceive of a new type of linguistic resource: Very Large Lexicons containing abstracted examples of all language use. This talk will describe how these technologies interact and how Very Large Lexicons can be built. Examples will be given of extracting abstracted language use of English and other language from the WWW.
