                Lemma

The lexical entry for a single morphological form of a
sense-disambiguated word.

Create a Lemma from a "<word>.<pos>.<number>.<lemma>" string where:
<word> is the morphological stem identifying the synset
<pos> is one of the module attributes ADJ, ADJ_SAT, ADV, NOUN or VERB
<number> is the sense number, counting from 0.
<lemma> is the morphological form of interest

Note that <word> and <lemma> can be different, e.g. the Synset
'salt.n.03' has the Lemmas 'salt.n.03.salt', 'salt.n.03.saltiness' and
'salt.n.03.salinity'.
