Give a brief definition of Lexical database.
A lexical database is a structured collection of lexical information about words or lexical items in a language. It typically includes data such as word forms, meanings, pronunciations, part-of-speech categories, syntactic properties, semantic relations, and usage examples. Lexical databases serve as valuable linguistic resources for natural language processing (NLP), computational linguistics, lexicography, and language research, providing comprehensive information about the vocabulary of a language and supporting various language-related tasks, such as word sense disambiguation, semantic analysis, and machine translation. Popular examples of lexical databases include WordNet, FrameNet, and the Oxford English Dictionary.
