#4What makes a word close to another ? So that it gets above the 20% mark?

#5I like it a lot, but it’s also frustrating. Perhaps it’s being hugged to death right now but the lookups are very slow, so when I disagree with the results it’s a bit painful. If the results were quicker it would not be so bad, I could try different things.
I was a bit miffed that “currency” was not considered to be related to “mark”. Similarly I thought I’d found the perfect word between “ski” and “trust”, “mogul”, but once again your program disagreed.
Also, please help the player understand the basis of the word relations. I was surprised that the shortest path between “investor” and “mark” was a non-dictionary word: “zuckerberg”. Presumably you are not using WordNet but some corpus of embeddings. If you say where he corpus comes from I can tailor my guesses. Conversely though, the shortest path feature is good because it teaches me what works. Maybe a top 5 would be even better.
You’re onto something though, keep at it!

I felt like "market" should have got better than 6% related score - investors participate in stock markets, and they often mark-to-market.

#7I really don't get this. Swindler has 0% relatedness to mark?

#8I really don't get this. Swindler has 0% relatedness to mark?
similarly "scam" is only 2% related to mark
I'd expect scam to be squarely in the middle between investor and mark :D

"scam" was my first try, too. I would have thought it would be strongly related to both "investor" and "mark"?
