    Method
    Description
    boolean
    isHypernym(String superConcept, String subConcept)
    Checks for a one sided hypernymy relation (as opposed to isHypernymous(String, String).
    boolean
    isHypernymous(String linkedConcept_1, String linkedConcept_2)
    Checks for hypernymous words in a loose-form fashion: One concept needs to be a hypernym of the other concept where the order of concepts is irrelevant, i.e., the method returns (hypernymous(w1, w2) || hypernymous(w2, w1).
