woordenarsenaal

woordenarsenaal is a Dutch-language lexical resource that collects and organizes Dutch words in a searchable database. It serves researchers, educators, writers, and developers by providing a structured overview of lexical items and their relationships. The project aims to support language research, education, and language technology applications.

Each entry typically includes the lemma, part of speech, inflected forms, pronunciation, etymology, semantic fields, usage notes, and example sentences. The database records synonyms, antonyms, and common collocations, as well as frequency information drawn from large corpora. This combination enables both detailed linguistic analysis and practical language use.

Access is provided through a web interface with advanced search options and filtering. An API allows programmatic access for researchers and developers. Content is released under licenses that permit reuse with attribution, enabling integration into educational tools, research projects, and language technologies.

The project is maintained by a collaboration of linguists, educators, and software engineers, with ongoing updates and community-driven corrections. Governance typically involves a transparent review workflow for new entries and edits, ensuring accuracy andConsistency over time.

In practice, woordenarsenaal supports lexical research, natural language processing, language education, and media work by providing a centralized resource for Dutch vocabulary and its relations. It is used to study morphology, semantics, and lexical diversity, and to aid in developing language-aware applications.
