Abstract. This paper describes an approach to the analysis of lexical cohesion using
WordNet. The approach automatically annotates texts with potential cohesive ties, and
supports various thesaurus based and text based search facilities as well as different
views on the annotated texts. The purpose is to be able to investigate large amounts of
text in order to get a clearer idea to what extent semantic relations are actually used to
make texts lexically cohesive and which patterns of lexical cohesion can be detected.
