hopefully you do better than us but damn that was an interesting journey

yeah well some of them were spamming of the derivative-words style, and others just bored drifting, but there were some seemingly disconnected close hits there
as we said, we are locking in our objection to the way their author describes it as “similarity”, videre licet
By “semantically similar”, I mean, roughly “used in the context of similar words, in a database of news articles.”
and probably “association” or “closeness” would be less misleading but hey we didn’t write it so they get to call it whatever they like
we’ll probably give up on the next few and write a different -le for your entertainments

I might code up a rival game. Firstly, regard various parts of speech of a single word to be equivalent. Secondly, rate the similarity by simple average distance in a synonymity network.

I’m on 44 and no closer than 511/1000.
It’s a frustrating sort of game. Reminds me of those Two Ronnies sketches where they’d be chatting in a pub and little Ronnie would keep getting stuck for a word, and big Ronnie would keep suggesting the wrong thing.
Okay I gave up. Not terribly happy. There are words must closer to the target word that got himdrum similarity figures.

Aye, that too.
I was going to leave semantle alone but during some boredom tonight I stuck some words in.
I got lots and lot of cold words until suddenly at word 30 I went green with ‘sport’ 782/1000
I tried lots and lots of different sporting related words and they all scored badly.
My 98th guess was ‘country’ for 998. So I tried countries and nations and national and such.
My 106th guess was ‘world’. Bingo. ( ‘International’ scored 980/1000..so shrug…I still don’t understand.)
This game can be very frustrating. Yesterday it took me 240 tries, but I only found it after abandoning the ‘clues’ and trying random words again.
Today’s was much better at 41, but the words I considered closest were ranked 721 and 722.

I played it yesterday with Sarah. We got out in just over a hundred. Not that it made sense.
I suppose I am bored enough to play again today.
I started semantling today while Fiona was here. It was more fun then. Play with me if you fee like it.

I did used to play a game with the kids when they were little where you take turns changing one letter in a word until you can’t any more (repeats not allowed). Like a road trip game. I wonder whether I could implement and publish that.

I started to get close yesterday when I went from the word hedge to the word boundary.And then words like fence and border got me nowhere so I went for cricket and zoomed up the list. then I went bowler, batsman and bat and I had it.
I thought it was weird how it was about cricket.

we find search patterns interesting and it’d be similarly of interest if the game provided a way to map out the guesses in some kind of chart
And what of homonyms? Say ‘pound’: is ‘strike’ or ‘dog’ closer to the answer?

I think sometimes one and sometimes the other.
The other day when I solved in 19 I started with field. And it was a good opening score. And so I picked paddock and it was low. And so I picked fence and it went up. And then I picked boundary and it went up lots. And then I had some words that rated badly. Ground rated well. Oval did too. Tried cricket and zoomed up list. Then bowler and batsman were really reall close and the answer was bat.

Whatever the system is, it does generally appear to focus on one particular meaning, both for the target word and for guesses.

and the “next nearest word” hint is fairly next nearest to useless, with plurality generally conferring “similarity” (though as we’ve suggested, “relatedness” or “association” or “closeness” is probably more appropriate) of around 70 arbitrary units
the better target words we find have chains of approach that include distinct polysemisms in approximately equal proportion

Yes, we eventually got there, after a penultimate guess that gave us the correct angle.
We acknowledge that the word is used in quite general contexts, though dictionary does say “especially” for a specific context. We probably associate it more with that context than their source data.
In all honesty we always thought that the word was specific to that context, and all the other uses were actually metaphorical(!).

Working on word similarities is the game.
“But you know sometimes words have two meanings” – or more. Sometimes you get lead astray.

Yes but I meant do you use google to search for a word that’s close to the word or just use your brain to work it out

the closest word I got was retrained. the answer was recruit. I did have a bunch of similar.

What does negative similarity mean?
Thus, if two words have 0 cosine similarity, they are completely orthogonal, meaning they have two different “meanings” and are completely unrelated. Whereas a negative similarity means the two words are related in component, but in an opposite (or negative) fashion

Yeah… not convinced by that, we don’t think their interpretation is sound just looking at their closest words lists.

Apparently the following has a record of previous, though we might look through later when we’re a bit more free.
took two clues. (they are now offering clues). And I got it out. Today’s was more like a bunch of unrelated words than normal. No wonder I got stuck.
I only learned about the game today. It was mentioned on a wireless program I was listening to – and played my first a few hours ago.
Got it in 45. I don’t know if that’s a good or poor score.
(I just had a thought! 45 eh? That sounds like a record! Not bad for someone who used to work in radio!)
I’ll see myself out …. )

yeah we avoid hints
an interesting one today
took us 113 to get into green but that got us straight to 988 wtf
that said we would have thought our 112 was closer but you know how all they twist words like that
bizarrely we started with this
5 paradox 23.55 (cold)
then didn’t get any closer until tried a previous answer which gave us 23.68
and any closer ones were after 112
Hint: paradox really didn’t help either, we agree.
Well that was a bit silly, the root word has a similarity of 18.12 placing it well out of the top 1000.

Do you look up words that are similar or guess
we try to guess almost entirely
if we’re sure it’s a synonym but we’re completely stuck otherwise then we go glossary but might have done that twice only
usually we’d give up instead of looking up general search or encyclopaedia for related words, given up heaps, searched again maybe twice
of the times we give up, most actually pay off in the sense that we wouldn’t have hit the target anyway

Let’s say for example that the answer is chess. And that the word scoring 923/1000 was …dice. And other close words included Katana and epee and joust and sandpit.
But the words board, pieces and move were all colder than tv.

not a good word map today certainly

I’ll post the stream of words later. It wasn’t too far from the startng word.
yeah it’s our own fault because we just go off on tangents of rhyme and clang associations
but still took us 14 just to get to green with “read” bd “write” which weren’t very helpful as you might gather from knowing the target
Just did a run of 58 correct words. But then I blew it. And I was being so careful.

first close took 21 for grief
then 54 life
then 109 brain and it was quick from there
that 997 though would not have been closest in our mind, we would have considered dialogue closer but it isn’t even top 1000, that said the root word is 979 and its negation is 992 so make of that what you will
(and 999 seems like a misspelling so we’re sure dv will have plenty of shade to cast)
well fk we got “train” and “training” and they were like 400 and 40 away or something which is quite far but anyway we weren’t intently burning the time and ran out
you’d‘ve expected them to be closer but whatever
I got it out in 50. It made logical sense. It still miffed me. It’s not a particularly strong word in comparison to those around it.
agree
gave up
shouldn’t be too much of a spoiler but seriously what the phqxcu
988 k 46.55
that’s the 12th closest word not including target
but yeah we figured jumping to hint would make the game more fun or reasonable but then boom
obviously we fkd up after finding a few similar words and couldn’t think of the winner
ah well at least starting with the 1/1000 hint makes it less frustratedious
