Abstract :
We present a system to extract definitions from a term using the Web. Definitions are organized according to a typology and its context. The structural and functional design is described; emphasizing its relevant components: the extractor of definitional context to candidates using the Yahoo!´s BOSS API; the extractor of definitional contexts and a clustering module based on textual energy as a measure of similarity.
