compétent is French for efficient, and every measurement below was made on that English word. Definitions come from English WordNet; Open Multilingual WordNet supplies the French headword, not a French definition.

Definitions come from WordNet, a hand-curated dictionary.
This panel splits compétent itself, not efficient — a tokenizer does not care what language it is fed. It is the only panel here that does.
This is the tokenizer splitting text, not the model understanding it.
Shade shows how close the model puts each word to efficient, 1 of 8 also appear in the dictionary.
inefficient is the dictionary opposite of efficient, yet this model puts it closer than every one of the 1 synonym it can score. Opposites share the sentences a word lives in, so cosine alone cannot tell them apart - which is why the dictionary seeds this list rather than the geometry.

Model neighbours are distributional, not dictionary synonyms. Two words can be close because they appear in similar sentences, which is why an antonym can outscore a synonym here.
Scores are projections onto axes we defined from anchor words, not labels the model assigns.
These sit just outside the closest neighbours in panel 3, and no dictionary lists any of them as related to efficient. That gap is the model’s own learned association.
