In the context of information retrieval, a thesaurus (plural: "thesauri") is a form of controlled vocabulary that seeks to dictate semantic manifestations of metadata in the indexing of content objects. A thesaurus serves to minimise semantic ambiguity by ensuring uniformity and consistency in the storage and retrieval of the manifestations of content objects. ANSI/NISO Z39.19-2005 defines a content object as "any item that is to be described for inclusion in an information retrieval system, website, or other source of information". The thesaurus aids the assignment of preferred terms to convey semantic metadata associated with the content object. ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thesaurus_(information_retrieval) wikipedia])

* '''Definition''' - the <nowiki>#</nowiki>  describes a comment line and can be used to add a definition of the ingredient. In this case the definition is taken from wikipedia.
* The ''<en:butter'' line describes the parent ingredient of this ingredient. The parent ingredient forms the basis of the current ingredient. This line is optional. It implies that any properties of the parent are also valid for the child, unless a property has been redefined.
+
* '''Super-ingredient''' - the ''<en:soya'' line describes the super-ingredient ingredient of this (sub-ingredient) ingredient. The relationship between the super-ingredient an the sub-ingredient is an ''is-a-kind-of-relationship''. This means that the sub-ingredient is a kind of super-ingredient. In this example the soybean ingredient is a kind soy ingredient. The sub-ingredient provides more details of the ingredient. In this case the super-ingredient is very broad (something with soy), wheras the sub-ingredient adds the detail of the bean. This line is optional, if no super-ingredient can be specified.
* The ''en:clarified butter'' line is the main name of the ingredient. Any synonyms appear after the main name, separated by comma's. The prefix ''en:'' defines the language of the main ingredient.  
+
* The ''en:soya bean'' line is the main name of the ingredient. Any synonyms appear after the main name, separated by comma's. The prefix ''en:'' defines the language of the main ingredient.  
 
* The next lines provide translations of the main ingredient in other languages. One language per line. Each line starts with a language prefix. Thus ''de:'' means german.
