Finite state and Constraint Grammar based analysers, proofing tools and language resources for the Livvi Karelian language
The morphological analyses of wordforms of Livvi Karelian are presented in this system in terms of following symbols. (It is highly suggested to follow existing standards when adding new tags).
The parts-of-speech are:
+Coll collective, probably from a common file.
The prefix (before “/”) is Cmp.
+Cmp - Dynamic compound. This tag should always be part of a dynamic compound. It is important for Apertium, and useful in other cases as well.
The Usage extents are marked using following tags:
+Use/-GC (?)
The nominals are inflected in the following Case and Number
The possession is marked as such:
The comparative forms are:
Numerals and Quantifiers are classified under:
+Iter Iterative form expressing number of times; myv: кавксть
, kpv: кыкысь
Verb tenses are: | +Prs | Present, non-past Tense
Verb moods are:
Verb personal forms are: +Rfl : This is a work around for olo passive. Olo has a passive conjugation, whereas Finnish and Estonian do not. Other verb forms are +Inf : Infinitive +Act : active voice +Pss : passive voice +PrfPrc : past participle +PrsPrc : present participle +RcPrfPrc : reflexive past participle +Ger : Gerund
+ConNeg +ConNegII +Neg +ImprtII +PrfPrcPl3 +Sup +VGen +VAbess
+ABBR +ACR
Non-dictionary words can be recognised with: +Guess
Question and Focus particles:
+Clt/bo

semantic types of adverbs
Semantics are classified with
Derivations are classified under the morphophonetic form of the suffix, the source and target part-of-speech.
+Der/AN A»N derivation
To represent phonologic variations in word forms we use the following symbols in the lexicon files:
%{aoeInf%} Back vowel infinitive marker %{äöeInf%} Front vowel infinitive marker
And following triggers to control variation
%^A2UÄ2Y with single vowels %^E2O the e => o, e => ö +Ind+Prs+ScSg3 %^Ä2I ä => i %^A2UÄ2I a => u, ä => i in consecutive vowels %^V2U v => y kävvä käydy
**%[%>%]** - Literal >
**%[%<%]** - Literal <
These are for developing underlying morphology rules
(escaped with square brackets, to avoid collision with > as morpheme boundary)
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
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. | @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.
