Morphological Analyzer

  • Problem analyzing words with enclitic 'টি' - it can analyze "বিষয়" to "^বিষয়/বিষয়<n><nt><nn><sg><nom>/বিষয়<n><nt><nn><sg><obj>$" but can't analyze "বিষয়টি". Similarly can "বস্তু" but not "বস্তুটি"
  • Some words have entries in bn.dix, yet they are not being analyzed with "lt-proc -a bn-en.automorf.bin". Say, for "সময়", "জাতীয়" we have corresponding entries:
     <e lm="সময়">সময়<par n="গড়__n_mf" /></e>
     <e lm="জাতীয়">জাতীয়<par n="টক__adj" /></e>

still the output:

 echo "সময়" | lt-proc -a bn-en.automorf.bin 
 ^সময়/*সময়$
 echo "জাতীয়" | lt-proc -a bn-en.automorf.bin 
 ^জাতীয়/*জাতীয়$

Tagset

  • Confusion on animacy 'elite': what is the exact definition ? Is these correct examples of <el> - "ক্রেতা", "বিদ্রোহী", "সহকারী" ? And is these not <el> for sure - "মেয়র", "ম্যাজিস্ট্রেট", "উপাচার্য"
  • Unmatched paradigm: "মামা", "চাচা" should be <m><hu> with the pardefs "ভাই__n_m" or "লোক__n_m" but neither of the two provides enough inflections for "মামার" or "চাচার"
  • What is the exact difference between <mf><nn> and <nt><nn> ? What are the exclusive properties ?
  • The word "মায়ের" probably has no matching pardef. the pardef "মা__n_f" has no inflections like "-য়ের"
