| Entries with inflected forms | 72,450 (87.77%) |

| Mean translations per entry | 2.21 |
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.
