LexSemantic is a Digital Platform for publishing knowledge bases (dictionaries, encyclopedias, etc.) that may contain SEMANTIC RELATIONSHIPS, such as WordnetPlus, which complements the Princeton Wordnet (PWN), one of the most spectacular disruptive innovations in universal lexicography.

Its interface has superior functionalities, especially compared to dictionary apps.
• A differentiated user experience adapted to semantic content;
• Presentation of synonyms grouped by concept (definition) clearly and objectively;
• Offline use;
• Lists of entries (e.g. Favorites) created and shared by users, automatically synchronized between their devices (cell phone, tablet, desktop, etc.);
• Integration with Wikipedia with disambiguation curation;
• Creation of a knowledge acquisition plan through semantic relationships.
An example of a Semantic Relationship is the generalization or specialization of a concept, such as the relationships between a motor vehicle (car, automobile...) and an ambulance, where the ambulance is a specialization of a car, while the car is the generalization of an ambulance.
This network of relationships of various types between the concepts represented by synonymous entries makes WordnetPlus a powerful and disruptive instrument for consulting the English language.
It is unparalleled as a thesaurus, as it presents synonyms associated with a concept (definition), allowing for the perfect substitution of one for the other. For example, complete and consummate, in the concept of "without qualification," can be used interchangeably: "complete coward" or "consummate coward."
It is also unique as a dictionary of interjections, prefixes, and suffixes, as it semantically associates them with the concepts to which they apply. For example:
• Given the entry liturgical, one can obtain the interjections: Christ, alleluia, begorra, Bismillah, etc.
• Given the entry bad, in the concept of "negative qualities," one can obtain the prefixes caco- (cacophony) and mis- (misdeed).
• Given the entry ability, in the concept of "the quality of being able," one can obtain the suffixes -ability (which informs the grammatical transformation adj->noun, e.g. available -> availability), -craft (housecraft), and -ship (musicianship).
