Morphotactics in an information-based model of realisational morphology
نویسندگان
چکیده
In most recent work, Crysmann and Bonami () suggest to reconcile the insights of inferential-realisational morphology (Anderson, ; Stump, ; Brown and Hippisley, ) with the full typology of variable morphotactics: situations where the expression of analogous feature sets can appear in various positions in the string. e authors proposed to account for these facts by importing, into HPSG, a variant of Paradigm Function Morphology (Stump, ) where realisation rules are doubly indexed for linear position and paradigmatic opposition. In this paper we first introduce more empirical challenges for theories of morphotactics that neither PFM nor the reformist approach of Crysmann and Bonami () can accommodate. We then argue for a reappraisal of methods for morph introduction, and propose a new approach that replaces stipulation of classes of paradigmatic opposition with a general distinction between expression and conditioning (Carstairs, ; Noyer, ) which greatly expands the scope of Pāṇini’s Principle.

Establishing Order in Type-Based Realisational Morphology
Recent years have witnessed a renewal of interest in variable morph ordering, the situation where the position of a morph in the word is not constant. These situations present a challenge to extant inferential-realisational approaches to morphology (Stump, 2001), insofar as these adopt implicitly or explicitly an a-morphous approach to morphological composition (Anderson, 1992). In this paper w...

1 I n t r o d u c t i o n The two-level model of computational morphology was proposed by Koskenniemi (1983) and has found widespread acceptance due mostly to its general applicability, declarativeness of rules and clear separation of linguistic knowledge and program. The essential difference from generative phonology is that there are no intermediate states between lexical and surface represen...

A Simple Formalism for Capturing Order and Co-Occurrence in Computational Morphology
Computational models of morphology and phonology have traditionally assumed as a starting point a morphotactic model where morpehemes are drawn from sublexicons and concatenated left-to-right. In defining the lexicon-morphotactic level of a system, this ‘continuation-class’ model has been the de facto standard implementation in various software toolkits. From surveying of a number of typologica...

In a project for the development of a concept-to-speech system for German, we apply extended two-level-morphology (Trost 1991) to provide a uniied solution to the tasks of morphotactics, segmental (morpho)phonology, syllabiication and assignment of stress. Starting from a lexeme-based lexicon, we show that a declarative two-level-implementation of a single rule-corpus complemented with feature ...
