Computational lexicology may be defined as the application of computers to the study of the lexicon. Taken in its broadest sense, it would be a multidisciplinary field involving the analysis of man-made dictionaries using computers to study their machine-readable text as well as a study of the computational linguistic content and organization of lexicons for use by natural-language processing programs.Computational lexicology is an emerging field of study for the 1980s being created by converging trends in other disciplines. This paper attempts to outline some of the applications that a knowledge of computational lexicology will facilitate and the possible means of extending such lexical knowledge.
