Faroese disambiguator
Usage, in lang-fao:
cat text.txt|hfst-tokenize -cg tools/tokenisers/tokeniser-disamb-gt-desc.pmhfst |vislcg3 -g src/cg3/disambiguator.cg3
This file documents the Faroese disambiguator file .
Delimiters, tags and sets
- LIST NAGD = Nom Acc Gen Dat ;
- LIST AGD = Acc Gen Dat ;
- LIST GENDER = Msc Fem Neu ;
- LIST NUMBER = Sg Pl ;
- @CODE
Test: Go for minimal weight. This rules gives priority to lexicalised forms.
- NumRom in beginning of sentence
MAPPING OF CC AND CS
Mostly we map both @CNP and @CVP, then we select @CNP, after that we remove them so @CVP remains
-
CCasCNPCVP Map (@CNP @CVP) to CC
-
killAllahtenotCS All occurrences of “at” are CSs.
-
Kill Sem/ID
-
killAllCNP removes all remaining @CNP
-
XCC-CS removes CC and CS with no synttag
-
ErrOrth goes for correct forms
-
X removes readings with no syntax

NP sets defined according to their morphosyntactic features
- The PRE-NP-HEAD family of sets
These sets model noun phrases (NPs). The idea is to first define whatever can occur in front of the head of the NP, and thereafter negate that with the expression WORD - premodifiers.
The set NOT-NPMOD is used to find barriers between NPs. Typical usage: … (*1 N BARRIER NPT-NPMOD) … meaning: Scan to the first noun, ignoring anything that can be part of the noun phrase of that noun (i.e., “scan to the next NP head”)
!!HNOUN MAPPING

Abbreviation affixes
Now splitting according to POS, and according to dot or not
First collecting POS info, *-noun, *-adv, etc. Also splitting when in doubt: -noun-adj => -noun and -adj Then pointing to two contlexes, a dot-one and a non-dot-one.
Lexicons without final period
Lexicons with final period
-
**LEXICON ab-dot-noun ** This is the lexicon for abbrs that must have a period.
-
**LEXICON ab-dot-adj ** This is the lexicon for abbrs that must have a period.
-
**LEXICON nodot-infl **
-
**LEXICON dot-infl **
- **LEXICON DOT ** - Adds the dot to dotted abbreviations. we also allow different variations of dotted abbreviations at the end of the sentence (especially for tokenisers)
- “kvæð.” gets analysed as
"kvæð" ABBR Gram/IAbbr N Abbrin tokeniser mode also: - “kvæð.” ->
"ABBR Gram/IAbbr N Abbr+"." CLBto account for sentence final kvæð with no extra full stop. - also
"kvæða" V Imp Sg+"." CLBdue to homonymy. Same treatment is done with two and three full stops after abbreviation in the end of the sentence: - “kvæð..” ->
"su" Adv Abbr+"." CLB Err/Orth - “kvæð…” ->
"su" Adv Abbr+"..." CLB

Faroese Noun morphology
This file contains the inflection suffixes for the Faroese nowns The infection classes are identical to the ones in Føroysk orðabók.
The morphology is ordered in three layers.
Layer 1: Basic noun lexica
The nominal morphology is added in three layers. In this first layer we add gender tags and morphophonological diacritics. The next two layers are for indefinite and definite suffixes, respectively.
Lexicons still to be allocated
We first list 4 lexica for words waiting to be checked.!
- LEXICON xi . TOOD: classify words in xi. They are all m
- LEXICON xkv2 . TOOD: classify xkv1. They are all f and end in a
- LEXICON xh3. TOOD: classify xkv2. They are all f and end in a consonant
-
LEXICON xh25. TOOD: classify xkv2. They are all f and end in a consonant
- LEXICON f
Irregular nouns
These are lexica with number 0, they have no inflectional morphology.!
- LEXICON k0 for januar etc.
- LEXICON kv0 for ommudidd
- LEXICON h0 for indeclinable neuters
- LEXICON irregular_nouns just gives the tags for the indeclinables
Lexica for words belonging to two paradigms.

Rules
These are the rules. After each rule (or rather: after many of the rules) there are test cases that are there to test whether the rules work.
Verschärfung
Rule: Deleting g
- Deleting g in gv Verschärfung I
- Deleting first g in ggj Genitive I
- Deleting second g in ggj Genitive II
-
Deleting g in sting:stakst
- sting^NGKK^aAB>st
- stak0000st
Rule: ng to kk Part 1 changes n to k in ng:kk before ^NGKK trigger
Rule: ng to kk Part 2 changes g to k in ng:kk before ^NGKK trigger
Rule: Deleting v in gv sequences Verschärverung II gives v:0 for gv:00 before ^GVDEL and in some other contexts
Verschärfung tests:*
- bógv^IUML>i
- bøg000i

Tests:
- ris>um>num
- ris0u00num
- skógv^GVDEL>m>num
- skó000000num
Rule: Deleting Double Consonant in Front of Consonant
The preceeding rule is fishy - the test cases below don’t fit the context requirements, and the >s# in the right context seems to indicate passive. The rule conflicts with the “Cns Deletion in front of Pass” rule at the end of the file - but only when using the Xerox tools! XXX - please have a look!

The tags are of the following form:
- +CmpNP/xxx - Normative (N), Position (P), ie the tag describes what position the tagged word can be in in a compound
- +CmpN/xxx - Normative (N) form ie the tag describes what form the tagged word should use when making compounds
- +Cmp/xxx - Descriptive compounding tags, ie tags that describes what form a word actually is using in a compound
This entry / word should be in the following position(s):
- +CmpNP/All - … in all positions, default, this tag does not have to be written
- +CmpNP/First - … only be first part in a compound or alone
- +CmpNP/Pref - … only first part in a compound, NEVER alone
- +CmpNP/Last - … only be last part in a compound or alone
- +CmpNP/Suff - … only last part in a compound, NEVER alone
- +CmpNP/None - … does not take part in compounds
- +CmpNP/Only - … only be part of a compound, i.e. can never be used alone, but can appear in any position
Usage tags
- +Use/Disamb = Use only in disambiguator/tokeniser analyser
-
+Use/Circ = for compound restrictions
-
+Use/PMatch means that the following is only used in the analyser feeding the disambiguator. This is missing.
- +Use/-PMatch
- +Use/-Spell
- +Use/NG
- +Use/NGA
- +Use/SpellNoSugg
- +Use/GC only retained in the HFST Grammar Checker disambiguation analyser
- +Use/TTS – only retained in the HFST Text-To-Speech disambiguation tokeniser
-
+Use/-TTS – never retained in the HFST Text-To-Speech disambiguation tokeniser
- +Err/Guess : Tag for Name Guesser component
- +Err/Orth : Marking forms that are orthographical errors

Flag diacritics
We have manually optimised the structure of our lexicon using following flag diacritics to restrict morhpological combinatorics - only allow compounds with verbs if the verb is further derived into a noun again:
| @P.NeedNoun.ON@ | (Dis)allow compounds with verbs unless nominalised |
| @D.NeedNoun.ON@ | (Dis)allow compounds with verbs unless nominalised |
| @C.NeedNoun@ | (Dis)allow compounds with verbs unless nominalised |

Flags for compound restriction
For languages that allow compounding, the following flag diacritics are needed to control position-based compounding restrictions for nominals. Their use is handled automatically if combined with +CmpN/xxx tags. If not used, they will do no harm.
| Flag | Explanation |
|---|---|
| @P.CmpFrst.FALSE@ | Require that words tagged as such only appear first |
| @D.CmpPref.TRUE@ | Block such words from entering ENDLEX |
| @P.CmpPref.FALSE@ | Block these words from making further compounds |
| @D.CmpLast.TRUE@ | Block such words from entering R |
| @D.CmpNone.TRUE@ | Combines with the next tag to prohibit compounding |
| @U.CmpNone.FALSE@ | Combines with the prev tag to prohibit compounding |
| @P.CmpOnly.TRUE@ | Sets a flag to indicate that the word has passed R |
| @D.CmpOnly.FALSE@ | Disallow words coming directly from root. |
Use the following flag diacritics to control downcasing of derived proper nouns (e.g. Finnish Pariisi -> pariisilainen). See e.g. North Sámi for how to use these flags. There exists a ready-made regex that will do the actual down-casing given the proper use of these flags. | @U.Cap.Obl@ | Allowing downcasing of derived names: deatnulasj. | @U.Cap.Opt@ | Allowing downcasing of derived names: deatnulasj.

Lexicon Root
This is the beginning of everything. The Root lexicon is reserved in the LexC language, and must be the first lexicon defined.
- Nouns ;
- Shortnouns ; 1- and 2-letter nouns excluded from compounding
- Propernouns ;
- Adjectives ;
- Shortadjectives ;

- Adverb ;
- Conjunction ;
- Subjunction ;
- Interjection ;
- Numeral ;

- Punctuation ;
- Symbols ;
- Abbreviation ;
- Acronyms ;
Lexicon Acronyms is split in two:
- Acronym-fao ; for fao acronyms
- Acronym-smi ; for language independent acronums
Lexicon ENDLEX
And this is the ENDLEX of everything:
@D.CmpOnly.FALSE@@D.CmpPref.TRUE@@D.NeedNoun.ON@ ENDLEX2 ;
The @D.CmpOnly.FALSE@ flag diacritic is ued to disallow words tagged
with +CmpNP/Only to end here.
The @D.NeedNoun.ON@ flag diacritic is used to block illegal compounds.

MAPPING OF CC AND CS
Mostly we map both @CNP and @CVP, then we select @CNP, after that we remove them so @CVP remains
-
CCasCNPCVP Map (@CNP @CVP) to CC
-
killAllahtenotCS All occurrences of “at” are CSs.
-
Kill Sem/ID
-
killAllCNP removes all remaining @CNP
-
XCC-CS removes CC and CS with no synttag
-
ErrOrth goes for correct forms
-
X removes readings with no syntax

Characters which have analyses in the lexicon, but can appear without spaces before/after, that is, with no context conditions, and adjacent to words:
- Punct contains ASCII punctuation marks
- The symbol after m-dash is soft-hyphen
U+00AD - The symbol following {•} is byte-order-mark / zero-width no-break space
U+FEFF.
Whitespace contains ASCII white space and the List contains some unicode white space characters
- En Quad U+2000 to Zero-Width Joiner U+200d’
- Narrow No-Break Space U+202F
- Medium Mathematical Space U+205F
- Word joiner U+2060
Apart from what’s in our morphology, there are
- unknown word-like forms, and
- unmatched strings
We want to give 1) a match, but let 2) be treated specially by
hfst-tokenise -aUnknowns are made of:- lower-case ASCII
- upper-case ASCII
- select extended latin symbols
- Faroese-specific alphabet ASCII digits
- select symbols
- Combining diacritics as individual symbols,
- various symbols from Private area (probably Microsoft), so far:
- U+F0B7 for “x in box”
Unknown handling
Unknowns are tagged ?? and treated specially with hfst-tokenise
hfst-tokenise –giella-cg will treat such empty analyses as unknowns, and
remove empty analyses from other readings. Empty readings are also
legal in CG, they get a default baseform equal to the wordform, but
no tag to check, so it’s safer to let hfst-tokenise handle them.
Finally we mark as a token any sequence making up a:
- known word in context
- unknown (OOV) token in context
- sequence of word and punctuation
- URL in context
