    <Paragraph position="0"> Computational lexicology/lexicography currently favours issues related to the ~, the reoresentation and the application of iexical knowledge functioning within a NLP-environment. Within the first domain, that of acquisition, one finds e.g. such topics as the extraction of information from corpora and machine readable dictionaries (MRD's). This paper - which is the result of a project in which, next to the author, also M.Reedijk, E.ten Pas and L.Willekens participated -, falls within this first domain as it will explicitly deal with the extraction of (lexicai) knowledge from (dictionary) definitions. However, it will be evident that acquisition without a representational framework does not make (much) sense.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="1"> Furthermore we will also indicate how to use the knowledge obtained.</Paragraph>
