For transfer[edit]

OOV handled poorly with trimming[edit]

$ echo "Айгүл күчүктү издептир." | apertium -d . kir-eng
Aygül looked for puppy.

$ echo "Айгүл күчүктү издебептир." | apertium -d . kir-eng
Aygül did not look for puppy.
$ echo "Айгүл күчүктү байкаптыр." | apertium -d . kir-eng
#Aygül puppy *байкаптыр.

$ echo "Айгүл күчүктү байкабаптыр." | apertium -d . kir-eng
#Aygül puppy *байкабаптыр.

OOV handled much better without trimming[edit]

$ echo "^Айгүл<np><ant><f><nom>$ ^күчүк<n><acc>$ ^байка<v><tv><ifi><evid><p3><sg>$^.<sent>$^.<sent>$" | rest-of-pipeline
Aygül @байка puppy..

$ echo "^Айгүл<np><ant><f><nom>$ ^күчүк<n><acc>$ ^байка<v><tv><neg><ifi><evid><p3><sg>$^.<sent>$^.<sent>$" | rest-of-pipeline
Aygül did not @байка puppy..

Ideal OOV handling[edit]

All of this is hypothetical (all of the above is current behaviour).

Option 1[edit]

Use source language information for

  • transfer rules
  • generation, with pseudo-lemmas from source language

Difference from current non-trimming behaviour: TL morphology is added to SL lemma at some point.

$ echo "Айгүл күчүктү байкаптыр." | apertium -d . kir-eng
Aygül @байка-ed puppy.

$ echo "Айгүл күчүктү байкабаптыр." | apertium -d . kir-eng
Aygül did not @байка puppy.

OR

Option 2[edit]

Use source language information for

  • transfer rules

Only difference from current non-trimming behaviour: surface form is output instead of lemma.

$ echo "Айгүл күчүктү байкаптыр." | apertium -d . kir-eng
Aygül @байкабаптыр puppy.

$ echo "Айгүл күчүктү байкабаптыр." | apertium -d . kir-eng
Aygül did not @байкабаптыр puppy.
