Have you ever struggled to find the right word to express your thoughts? Rajesh Shashi Kumar (PES University), Nihal V. Nayak (MS Ramaiah Institute of Technology), and Sai Charan (PES University) developed the Wordinator, an app that acts as a sort of a reverse dictionary for such situations. Users enter a definition (a phrase), and the app finds a matching word. This isn't as easy as it sounds. Rather than matching an exact definition with a word, Wordinator uses Watson's natural language capabilities to compare an informal phrase to a more formal definition in a database.
The app also supports vocabulary building. In addition to single words, the system can return a collection of related words. Thus, Wordinator can improve language learners’ expressiveness and fluency by introducing them to new words and reinforcing connections between related words. This -feature could also help students preparing for tests that emphasize verbal skills, such as the GRE or TOEFL.
