Hi, I wanna ask. The sentiment scores range is between +5 and -5. So until what range is positive, negative and neutral?

Hi @amalinazakaria , thanks for the question. In the application of my conference paper, I used the following: Negative: -5 to -1 Neutral: 0 Positive: +1 to +5

As the dictionary text file only consists of word/score combination, the range could be up to your interpretation as well and depends on your application. E.g. Neutral => +1, 0, 1.
