JWKTL – Java Wiktionary Library 
Version 0.1

Wiktionary is a multilingual, web-based, freely available dictionary,
thesaurus and phrase book, designed as the lexical companion to Wikipedia.
Lately, it has been recognized as a promising lexical semantic resource
for natural language processing applications.

the information contained in the English and German language editions of
Wiktionary:
* glosses
* part of speech
* etymology
* examples
* quotations
* references
* word language
* translations
* internal and external links
* categories
* related words
* antonyms, holonyms, hypernyms, hyponyms, meronyms, synonyms,
troponyms, "see also" terms, characteristic word combinations,
coordinate terms, derived terms, descendants, etymologically related terms

JWKTL is freely available for non-profit and non-commercial use from the
following website:

It was developed by the Ubiquitous Knowledge Processing Lab at the
Darmstadt University of Technology, Germany.
