* '''apertium-sme-nob.sme.twol''' (two-level morphology)

The twol file is a plain copy of twol-sme.txt. The lexc file is a concatenation of sme-lex.txt and the various POS-sme-lex.txt files in gt/sme/src (e.g. verb-sme-lex.txt, adj-sme-lex.txt). However, for each of those POS-files, the apertium lexc file only contains lines where the lemma exists in bidix (see the below section).

We don't use the regex rules (gt/common/src/*.xfst) to remove Der2 and Use/Sub tags (though we may start doing this later). Tag fixes happens using a few two-level rules and similar that are composed on the analyser:

We keep the lexc file up to date with the bidix and the giellatekno entries with the python script '''update-morph/update-lexc.py''' and a per-user configuration file based on '''update-morph/langs.cfg.in'''. The configuration file tells which -lex.txt source files are to be plain copied, and which are to be trimmed, and any POS tags to restrict the trimming to. For trimming, it loads the compiled bidix FST ('''sme-nob.autobil.bin'''), and, for each of the lines in the files that are to be trimmed, it checks if the lemma (plus possible POS tags) is possible to analyse with the FST. So if noun-sme-lex.txt has

So to add new words to the lexc:

# and then you can run <code>/usr/bin/python2.6 update-morph/update-lexc.py --config=update-morph/my-langs.cfg</code>
#* you create update-morph/my-langs.cfg by copying update-morph/langs.cfg.in and editing the SRC line to point to where you checked out the sme morphology from Giellatekno svn
# and then you can run <code>make</code> to compile the analyser

For simple copy-pasting, the last three steps are:
<pre>make sme-nob.autobil.bin &&
/usr/bin/python2.6 update-morph/update-lexc.py --config=update-morph/my-langs.cfg &&
make</pre>
(given that /usr/bin/python2.6 is your python2 version, and your personal copy of langs.cfg.in is stored as update-morph/my-langs.cfg)

Documentation and TODO's for apertium-sme-nob's sme morphological analyser from Giellatekno.

Description[edit]

The sme morphological analyser is a trimmed and tag-changed version of the one in Giellatekno.

Trimming[edit]

Trimming happens using the same HFST method as in the Turkic pairs etc. Compounds are not handled correctly by this method.

Tagset changes[edit]

The tagset in apertium-sme-nob is closer to Apertium's tagset, thus a bit different from the one in Giellatekno.

TODO[edit]

Misc[edit]

  • add entries from bidix that are missing from the analyser
  • regex for URL's (don't want telefonkatalogen.no => *telefonkatalogen.nå)
  • regex for acronyms like "GsoC:as" (tokenisation dependent...)
  • 8632: SUBSTITUTE:TV_IV (V TV) (V IV) FAUXV (0 ("lávet")); -- this should be analysed as both, and disambiguated

Typos[edit]

I've seen "odda" many places ("ođđa"), can we just add these to the analyser? (Would be cool to have charlifter/Diacritic Restoration, but until then…)

Dashes[edit]

lexc handles dashes by adding them literally (like a lemma), doing that in with a bidix pardef would be very messy (also, doesn't it give issues with lemma-matching in CG?).

Multiwords[edit]

Add simple multiwords and fixed expressions to the analyser.

  • dasa lassin => i tillegg (til det)
  • dán áigge => for tiden
  • mun ieš => meg selv
  • bures boahtin => velkommen
  • Buorre beaivi => God dag
  • leat guollebivddus => å fiske
  • maid ban dainna => hva i all verden
  • jagis jahkái => fra år til år
  • oaidnaleapmái => 'see you'
  • ovdamearkka => for eksempel
  • Mo manná? => Hvordan går det?
  • ja nu ain => og så videre

(Some of these MWE's might be very Apertium-specific, but in that case we just keep our own file and append the entries with update-lexc.sh.)

Also, oktavuohta.N.Sg.Loc turns into an mwe preposition in nob:

  • oktavuođas => i forbindelse med

it'd be a lot simpler for transfer to just analyse such a fixed expression as oktavuođas.Po in the first place.
