Getting all the nouns from wordnet

[koko_2]

Hello,

When trying to obtain all the nouns in WordNet with the help of the wn-
perl module, I got some words which do not exist in wordNet such as :
iproclozid
jacuzzi
kodagu
langlauffer
latisimus_dorsi
lechartelierite
legin
licencee

and many others too. Any idea why ?

I used Ted's code by the way for obtaining the nouns.

use WordNet::QueryData;
my $wn = WordNet::QueryData->new;
@allnouns = $wn->listAllWords("n");
print "@allnouns";

This is an ambiguous statement.  It would help if you could clarify.  What do you mean by "in WordNet?"

None of them appear in the WordNet-3.0 dict files nor are they returned by the QueryData listAllWords("n") function when using WordNet-3.0...
