3. A few notions

Built-in Entities: these are entities who are matching generic patterns like email, numbers, time, dates…
Value-list entities: list of values ↔ synonyms.

Example: detect gaming consols

- Value: Xbox / Synonyms: xbox 360, xbox one, xbox series
- Value: Playstation / Synonyms: PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4, PS5

Regular Expression entities: use a regular expression to match a pattern

Example: detect: United States zip code

- Regular Expression: \d{5}(-\d{4})?
