The two central problems in morphology are word formation and morphological alternations. The study of word formation is about the principles that govern the combinations of stems, affixes, and other types of morphemes. The problem of morphological alternations arises from the fact that a morpheme may have alternate realizations depending on its phonological environment and the composition of t...

Computational Morphology and Natural Language Parsing are the two important as well as essential tasks required for a number of natural language processing application including machine translation. Developing well fledged morphological analyzer and generator (MAG) tools or natural language parsers for highly agglutinative languages is a challenging task. The function of morphological analyzer ...

Korean as an agglutinative language shows its proper types of difficulties in morphological disambiguation, since a large number of its ambiguities comes from the stemming while most of ambiguities in French or English are related to the categorization of a morpheme. The current Korean morphological disambiguation systems adopt mainly statistical methods and some of them use rules in the postpr...

The present study investigated morphological priming in Dutch and its time course in overt speech production using a long-lag priming paradigm. Prime words were compounds that were morphologically related to a picture name (e.g. the word jaszak, 'coat pocket' was used for a picture of a coat; Dutch jas) or form-related monomorphemic words (e.g. jasmijn, 'jasmine'). The morphologically related c...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was twofold. First, we investigated whether first-grade children evidenced morphological awareness and whether they used their knowledge of morphological relations to guide their spelling. Second, we sought to determine whether children's morphological awareness abilities were predictive of their performance on word-level reading and spelling measures. METHOD...

We focus on a problem of homonymy and polysemy in morphological dictionaries on the example of the Czech morphological dictionary MorfFlex CZ [2]. It is not necessary to distinguish meanings in morphological dictionaries unless the distinction has consequencies in word formation or syntax. The contribution proposes several important rules and principles for achieving consistency.

We explored morphological decomposition in reading, the locus in the reading process in which it takes place and its nature, comparing different types of morphemes. We assessed these questions through the analysis of letter position errors in readers with letter position dyslexia (LPD). LPD is a selective impairment to letter position encoding in the early stage of word reading, which results i...

There are examples of grammaticalisation in various forms Turkic languages. Reduplication attracts attention both as a grammatical sign and one the ways word formation. Repetition is categories functionally used This article examines from old modern It explains with that method reduplication Turkish formation, some other world In addition, language units formed by repetition tried to explain th...

1 Introduction Computational processing of highly inflectional languages – that typically feature a huge number of possible word forms – relies upon an efficient morphological analysis. For this, a comprehensive morphological analyser is needed, which cannot be replaced by a simple lexicon lookup since such a lexicon should contain all word forms for the language and would be computationally in...

Joint morphological and syntactic analysis has been proposed as a way of improving parsing accuracy for richly inflected languages. Starting from a transition-based model for joint part-of-speech tagging and dependency parsing, we explore different ways of integrating morphological features into the model. We also investigate the use of rule-based morphological analyzers to provide hard or soft...
