The WordNet-Affect Lexicon is a hand-curate collection of emotion-related words (nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs), classified as “Positive”, “Negative”, “Neutral”, or “Ambiguous” and categorized into 28 subcategories (“Joy”, “Love”, “Fear”, etc.).
Terms can and do appear in multiple categories.
The original lexicon contains multi-word phrases, but they are excluded here. Also, we removed the term ‘thing’ from the lexicon.
