How do I print out just the word itself in a WordNet synset using Python NLTK?
Is there a way in Python 2.7 using NLTK to just get the word and not the extra formatting that includes "synset" and the parentheses and the "n.01" etc? For instance if I do wn.synsets('dog') My results look like: [Synset('dog.n.01'), Synset('frump.n.01'), Synset('dog.n.03'), Synset('cad.n.01'), Synset('frank.n.02'), Synset('pawl.n.01'), Synset('andiron.n.01'), Synset('chase.v.01')] How can I instead get a list like this? dog frump cad frank pawl andiron chase Is there a way to do this using NLTK or do I have to use regular expressions ? Can I use regular expressions within a python script? If
