-==== Unit 2 ====+  * motivation and geometric intuition 
 +  * distributional vs. semantic similarity 
 +  * hands-on: //software setup, first steps with the ''wordspace'' package//

 +
 +  * formal definition of a DSM, taxonomy of parameters
 +  * collecting co-occurrence data: what counts as a context?
 +  * mathematical operations on DSM vectors
