ABSTRACT This study is about the realization of derivational and inflectional morphemes in English Javanese. The objectives this are to investigate kinds Javanese short stories, how words formed by inflectional, explain designed descriptive-qualitative research. source data stories namely 1) Oedipus Rex Sangkuriang, 2) Beauty beast Lutung Kasarung. findings showed that word formation morpheme w...

This paper investigates the use of sublexical units as a solution to handling the complex morphology with productive derivational processes, in the development of a lexical functional grammar for Turkish. Such sublexical units make it possible to expose the internal structure of words with multiple derivations to the grammar rules in a uniform manner. This in turn leads to more succinct and man...

In the IBM LMT machine translation system, derivational morphological rules recognize and analyze words that are not found in its source lexicons, and generate default transfers for these unlisted words. Unfound words with no inflectional or derivational affixes are by default nouns. These rules are now expanded to provide lexical coverage of a particular set of words created on the fly in emai...

Development of a text-to-speech synthesizer in a language calls for either a pronouncing dictionary or a grapheme-to-phoneme (G2P) converter. For agglutinative and morphologically rich languages it is not possible to build an exhaustive pronouncing dictionary. Moreover, since phonology is overtly dependent on morphological structures, morphological analysis becomes important even for building a...

A patient is described who makes morphological errors in spontaneous sentence production and in repetition of single words. The great majority of these errors were substitutions of inflectional affixes. The patient did make some derivational errors in repeating derived words but almost never made such errors for nonderived words. The inflectional errors for adjectives and nouns occurred mostly ...

We describe an automated method for identifying classes of morphologically related words in an on-line dictionary, and for linking individual senses in the derived form to one or more senses in the base form by means of morphological relation attributes. We also present an algorithm for computing a score reflecting the system’s certainty in these derivational links; this computation relies on t...

Such a rich language resource like Princeton WordNet, containing linguistic information of different types (semantic, lexical, syntactic, derivational, dialectal, etc.), is a thesaurus which is worth both being used in various language-enabled applications and being explored in order to study a language. In this paper we show how we used Princeton WordNet version 3.0 to study the English affixe...

Recent work in Optimality Theory (Prince and Smolensky 1993, McCarthy and Prince 1993, to appear) has suggested that phonological regularities can be explained without reference to phonological rules, strictly in terms of constraints on representational wellformedness. A unique aspect of Optimality Theory (OT) is that candidates are evaluated in parallel: there is no serial derivation. Given th...

In this squib we explore a strictly derivational explanation for the differences in possible middle voice constructions in Norwegian and Swedish. Whereas Norwegian allows by its lexical s-passive construction as well as a complex adjectival construction to stand in for middle semantics, only the latter option is available in Swedish. We argue that this contrast lies in the lexicalization of for...
