This file contains the seed patterns used by Espresso for the ACL 2006 paper.
Each section of the file refers to a given relation (e.g. IS-A) and a given
corpus (e.g. BOOK). These are the relation and the corpus referred in the 
publication.
Each line contains a seed pair: the two terms are separated by a ';', and 
are PoS-tagged using the Alembic Workbench POS-tagger (Day et al. 1997).
