Get synonym or root word from solr

Question

I have a list of synonyms like below

"gb":["gib","gigabyte"],
"happy":["glad","joyful"],
"television":["tv"]

I need to convert sentence 1 to sentence 2

1. I like watching tv
2. I like watching television

Is there a synonym API in solar to which if I pass "tv" can give back "television"

what approaches can be taken to solve this?

Answer 1

if you are thinking of using Solr just for this, it would be much much easier just not to. Bringing the whole Solr just for this makes no sense.

Just use a data structure of your choosing (depending on what are your needs it could be a list of hashmaps, a multimap from guava ...) to store the dictionary data, and use plain java.
