WordNet: A Lexical Database for the English Language
URL: http://wordnet.princeton.edu/

Description:
More than a thesaurus or dictionary, this database provides synonyms for related concepts as well as for related words. "English nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs are organized into synonym sets, each representing one underlying lexical concept. Different relations link the synonym sets."
