It assumes a lexeme-based approach to % derivation. % % The order of items in the file is as follows: % % 1.1. Opening declarations. The user should quote out the appropriate % lexicons and show declarations. The association is as follows: % show_adj.dec ~ istderiv.dtr, ovderiv.dtr, skderiv.dtr, nderiv.dtr % show_noun.dec ~ nikderiv.dtr, ostderiv.dtr, telderiv.dtr. % % 1.2. Lexeme node. This is the maximally underspecified source of inheritance % for leaf lexical entry nodes. It makes statements about the form (the paths % and ), semantics (paths beginning ), and syntax % (paths ) of a lexical entry. % % 1.3. Stem formation hierarchy. Here are found the nodes LEX_FORMATION, % DENOM, DEADJ and DEVERB. These, apart from the first node, relate the % semantics of a particular derivation with a form (suffix). These relation % statements are organized according to the syntactic category of the Base, % where DENOM specifies the situation with noun Bases, DEADJ with adjective % Bases, and DEVERB with verb Bases. % % The first node LEX_FORMATION ensures a BASE inherits the relation statement % that accords with its syntactic category. % % 1.4. Interdependency nodes for person and agent noun derivation, as well as % relational adjective derivation. Person and agent nouns may be male, female % or undifferentiated for sex. Relational adjectives are derived on the basis % of the semantic features of the Base. % % 1.5. Semantic and syntactic interdependency nodes. These handle associations % between the semantics of the derivation and: % animacy % semantic sex % syntactic class % % 1.6. Dummy inflection hierarchy. The noun class is assigned according to % the particular derivation. Only singular nominative and singular genitive % are represented. For the inflection of adjectives, also assigned by the % derivation, forms are restricted to the singular nominative of masculine, % feminine and neuter genders. For the masculine, the unstressed variant is % given. % % 2) Related files % % 2.1. *deriv.dtr files for Derivative lexical entries, which in turn load % *base.dtr files respectively which are the associated Base lexical entries. % 2.2. show*.dec files show relevant paths for noun and adjective Derivatives. % % 3) Example theorem list (for noun Derivative in the suffix -ost'): % % % Glasnost': = openness. % Glasnost': = glasn. % Glasnost': = glasn ost'. % Glasnost': = glasn ost'. % Glasnost': = glasn ost' i. % % 4) Acknowledgements % % The research reported here is supported by the Leverhulme Trust (F.242M). % I am also grateful for comments from the Russian Morphology Group: Dunstan % Brown, Greville Corbett and Norman Fraser. % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % 1.1.
