 +**What'​s the point?**\\
 +The goal is to find deeper meaning, within language and between ourselves. By acquiring commonsense knowledge from people across disciplines,​ regions and cultures, we can approach a singularity of meaning and understanding.
 +
 +**How does it work?**\\
 +Our approach involves collection and analysis of //idea sets// -- a set of dimensions used to frame a concept. The resulting "​thesaurus"​ can be used to populate knowledgebase systems for natural language processing. //​Developers note//: Nymology is open source, and a REST API is provided.
