A sense's gloss gives a natural definition of the sense (see Gloss on Wikipedia and skos:definition). Similar to Lemmas, Glosses are not simple strings, but MultilingualTextValues. However, the reason is not providing support for variants, but to allow the gloss to be given in entirely different languages. E.g. it would be quite useful for a German learning French to have a German gloss for a French word.
