Dictionaries as Networks: Identifying the graph structure of Ogden's Basic English
We study the network structure underlying dictionaries. We systematize the properties of such networks and show their relevance for linguistics. As case of study, we apply this technique to identify the graph structure of Ogden{'}s Basic English. We show that it constitutes a strong core of the English language network and that classic centrality measures fail to capture this set of words.
