Persian computational morphology: A unification-based approach
Abstract
This report provides a complete descriptive analysis of Persian inflectional morphology from a computational perspective. The parts of speech and the morphemes that appear on them as well as their corresponding morphotactics are presented in detail. The verbal paradigm is also described in this document. Since the morphological analyzer designed for this project uses a unification-based grammar with typed feature structures, the morphological information has been defined in terms of features and values. The report describes the current version of the morphological analyzer used in the Shiraz project and discusses any morphological elements that have not been included in this version, mostly due to the colloquial usage of these morphemes. Sample rules of Samba, the grammar specifying the morphological analyzer, as well as the feature specification for the Persian type definitions module are also described.
