This is the tokenizer splitting text, not the model understanding it.

Dictionary antonyms measured

ripe is the dictionary opposite of green, yet this model puts it closer than 1 of the 5 synonyms 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.

Shade shows how close the model puts each word to green. 5 of 26 dictionary synonyms are in this build; the rest have no vector to compare yet.

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.
