Semantic Domains

I have begun to work on a semantic dictionary of the Psalter. With four or five hours work I threw a bunch of words into 'categories' - somewhat randomly chosen.

There are now about 50 with varying counts of the 1400 or so roots and 19500 or so words of the Psalter. All in all, it's a bit arbitrary - but useful. I found a few anomalies and will find more. Good tool for refining one's thoughts.

The list is here under the title test of domains of interest, with the selected glosses - evolving...
