This is an API for the user of the resource grammar
|
|
for adding lexical items. It gives functions for forming
|
|
expressions of open categories: nouns, adjectives, verbs.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>
|
|
Closed categories (determiners, pronouns, conjunctions) are
|
|
accessed through the resource syntax API, <CODE>Structural.gf</CODE>.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>
|
|
The main difference with <CODE>MorphoSpa.gf</CODE> is that the types
|
|
referred to are compiled resource grammar types. We have moreover
|
|
had the design principle of always having existing forms, rather
|
|
than stems, as string arguments of the paradigms.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>
|
|
The structure of functions for each word class <CODE>C</CODE> is the following:
|
|
first we give a handful of patterns that aim to cover all
|
|
regular cases. Then we give a worst-case function <CODE>mkC</CODE>, which serves as an
|
|
escape to construct the most irregular words of type <CODE>C</CODE>. For
|
|
verbs, there is a fairly complete list of irregular verbs in
|
|
<A HREF="../../spanish/IrregSpa.gf"><CODE>IrregSpa</CODE></A>.

The regular function takes the singular form and the gender,
|
|
and computes the plural and the gender by a heuristic.
|
|
The heuristic says that the gender is feminine for nouns
|
|
ending with <I>a</I> or <I>z</I>, and masculine for all other words.
|
|
Nouns ending with <I>a</I>, <I>o</I>, <I>e</I> have the plural with <I>s</I>,
|
|
those ending with <I>z</I> have <I>ces</I> in plural; all other nouns
|
|
have <I>es</I> as plural ending. The accent is not dealt with.

Some nouns are ones where the first part is inflected as a noun but

the second part is not inflected. e.g. <I>número de teléfono</I>.

They could be formed in syntax, but we give a shortcut here since

they are frequent in lexica.
