The Titi Tudorancea® Dictionary is based on WordNet® 3.0, with updates from WordNet 3.1 and edits, corrections and additions made by our in-house editors. The audio pronunciation includes files courtesy of the National Institutes of Health and files generated using the Polly TTS engine.

WordNet is an online lexical database inspired by current psycholinguistic theories of human lexical memory. English nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs are organized into synonym sets, each representing one underlying lexical concept. Different relations link the synonym sets.

WordNet was developed by the Cognitive Science Laboratory at Princeton University under the direction of Professor George A. Miller (Principal Investigator).

Over the years, many people have contributed to the success of WordNet. Currently, the following individuals at Princeton work on the continuing development of WordNet and applying it to research:

Professor George A. Miller
Dr. Christiane Fellbaum
Randee Tengi
Susanne Wolff
Pamela Wakefield
Helen Langone
Benjamin Haskell

Dr. Fellbaum's work was supported in part by grant No. 9805732 from the National Science Foundation.

The Titi Tudorancea Dictionary interface was developed by our team of dedicated developers and it offers additional features not provided by the source dictionaries. We would like to acknowledge the help provided by analyzing the output of WordNet SQL Builder developed by Bernard Bou (Toulouse, France).
