What is in an entry
| Entries with a real translation | 75,758 (73.72%) |
| Entries with only a definition, no translation | 27,011 |
| Entries with a usage example | 18,067 (17.58%) |
| Entries with inflected forms | 55,344 (53.85%) |
| Entries with pronunciation | 51,239 |
| Senses | 197,933 |
| Mean definition length | 50.9 characters |
| Mean translations per entry | 2.26 |
An entry counted as “definition only” is one where the source wordnet knows the concept but has no word for it in the target language. These are shipped because a definition still helps a reader, and counted separately because calling them translations would be dishonest.
