Three unrelated technological advances make it possible to conceive of
a new type of linguistic resource: Very Large Lexicons containing
abstracted examples of all language use. This talk will describe how
these technologies interact and how Very Large Lexicons can be
built. Examples will be given of extracting abstracted language use of
English and other language from the WWW.
