A method of classifying and accessing writing examples for writing composition. A language domain is first selected and representatives texts from that domain are analyzed to build a classification system for the domain. The text is first analyzed to determine root nouns and root verbs. The texts are further analyzed to determine relationships between nouns and the root verbs used for each noun-to-noun relationship. At this point, writing examples are then extracted from the texts and stored in a database. These writing examples are then classified by the earlier defined noun-to-noun relationships and root verbs that go along with those noun-to-noun relationships. Access to the writing examples is accomplished via a three-level interface. The first level (noun interface) maps nouns and pre-determined relationships between those nouns. By selecting one of these relationships, a navigation link takes the user is a second level (verb interface) showing root verbs that relate to the particular noun-to-noun relationship selected. Here the user selects a particular root verb which causes a query of the writing examples database. The results of the query are sent to a third level interface (results interface) where the writing examples are displayed. The user may then select one or more writing examples to insert in a word processing program or document where the user may modify them for the writing job at hand.
