Extract Word from Synset using Wordnet in NLTK 3.0

by

WordNet works fine in NLTK 3.0. You are just accessing the lemmas (and names) in the wrong way. Try this instead:

>>> import nltk
>>> nltk.__version__
'3.0.0'
>>> from nltk.corpus import wordnet as wn
>>> for synset in wn.synsets('dog'):
    for lemma in synset.lemmas():
        print lemma.name()


dog
domestic_dog
Canis_familiaris
frump
dog
dog
cad
bounder
blackguard
...

synset.lemmas is a method and does not have a __getitem__() method (and so is not subscriptable).
