[Corpora-List] WordNet vs Ontology

[liling tan]

Dear corpora linguists,

There is recently a discussion on stackoverflow about "wordnet vs
ontology". I would like your perspective on several issues about wordnet
and ontology:

- Is wordnet an ontology? If it is not an ontology, what is it?

- What is the definition of an ontology? Is anything
(words/concept/entities) under a hierarchical structure some sort of
linguistic ontology?

- Are linguistic onotology / information science ontology subjected to only
upper and domain ontology?

- Any other comments about ontology and wordnet?

Regards,
liling
