[Corpora-List] comparison of dictionary definitions across times

[Yannick Versley]

Hello Marco,

Roget's thesaurus exists in at least the 1911 version which is on Gutenberg
and the modern version that has also been used. No idea whether the
Roget's people have machine-readable versions of the versions between
1911 and 2000, but it may be worth asking.

Best wishes,
Yannick
