Title A Multilayered Declarative Approach to Cope with Morphotactics and Allomorphy in Derivational Morphology
Authors Johannes Handl and Carsten Weber
Abstract This paper deals with the derivational morphology of automatic wordform recognition. It presents a set of declarative rules which augmentlexical entries with information governing the allomorphic changes ofderivation in addition to the existing allomorphy rules forinflection. The resulting component generates a single lexicon forderivational and inflectional allomorphy from an elementary base-formlexicon. Thereby our focus lies both on avoiding redundant allomorphentries and on the suitability of the resulting lexical entries formorphological analysis. We prove the usability of our approach byusing the generated allomorphs as the lexicon for automatic wordformrecognition.
