Lexc and Twolc Development

Improving the src/morphology/stems files

• Are the words in the correct file? (an adverb may pop up on the noun file: move it to adverbs.lexc)
• Do the words have the correct stem? Fix it
• Do the words have the correct continuation lexicon?

Derivation

Regular derivation we do in the affixes/ files.

If all verbs may be turned into nouns by adding -ing, then do something along these lines:

LEXICON Verbs
bark vmorph ;
kick vmorph ;
sing vmorph ;


LEXION vmorph
+V+Inf ## ;
+V+Prs+Sg3:%>s ## ;
+V+Der/ing:%>ing nmorph ; ! <=== here we derive


LEXICON nmorph
+N+Sg: ## ;
+N+Pl:%>s #;

In addition to that, the lexicon Nouns may also contain an occational lexicalised noun like shopping.
