Contribution
It presents a novel formalism for encoding lemmas and generating allomorph-indexed dictionaries, enhancing linguistic processing for complex languages.
Findings
Efficient automatic dictionary generation from lemma-based sources
Implementation of software tools for morphological processing
Formalism suited for highly inflected languages
Abstract
In this paper we present a unification-based lexical platform designed for highly inflected languages (like Roman ones). A formalism is proposed for encoding a lemma-based lexical source, well suited for linguistic generalizations. From this source, we automatically generate an allomorph indexed dictionary, adequate for efficient processing. A set of software tools have been implemented around this formalism: access libraries, morphological processors, etc.
