6 Conclusions
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> Even with a limited ontology and noisy lexicon, semantics does predict countability around 78% of the time. Therefore countability is shown to correlate with semantics. This semantic motivation can be used to build tools to (a) automatically predict countability for unknown words, and (b) serve as a check on consistency when building a dictionary.</Paragraph>
