The CHI-KNOW-PO (Chinese Knowledge and Poetry) database is structured around Chinese words and their use in the Medieval Period. As such, it contains a table of words, indications to which group they belong to (e.g. plants, emotions), what their synonyms are and the first known source to use the word. It contains a large number of other data related to this core: information about the source texts, their authors and commentators etc.
In addition to words, semantic categories and synonyms, the database holds information on persons of Chinese history, literary works and connections between these objects. This part is linked to words (as we record first identified occurrence of words in texts by authors). It is nonetheless the result of a specific development.
