The paper presents a morpho-lexical environment, designed for the management of rootoriented natural language dictionaries. It also encapsulates the basic morpho-lexical processings: analysis and synthesis of individual word-forms or compounds (idioms and analytic constructions). | A UNIFIED MANAGEMENT AND PROCESSING OF WORD-FORMS IDIOMS AND ANALYTICAL COMPOUNDS Dan Tufis Octav Popescu Research Institute for Informatics Miciurin 8-10 71316 Bucharest 1 Fax 653095 Romania ABSTRACT The paper presents a morpho-lexical environment designed for the management of root-oriented natural language dictionaries. It also encapsulates the basic morpho-lexical processings analysis and synthesis of individual word-forms or compounds idioms and analytic constructions . INTRODUCTION Lately a proliferation of computational lexicon environments CLE has been noticed which significantly influence the work on natural language mainly machine translation Byrd Ct al. 1987 Nirenburg and Raskin 1987 Ritchie cl al. 1987 etc. With more and more computing power incorporated the modern CLEs are capable to process not only individual inflected words or derivatives but also idioms and collocations. Nonetheless there are many applications in language industry which consider a CLE an unfordable luxury. We believe that such an objection may be refused if the CLE is so designed that it should function in a data-driven manner. We have purposely developed a morpho-lexical management and processing environment aimed at providing an unified and satisfactory solution to a wide range of applications intelligent text-processing textual information retrieval natural language interfacing natural language understanding machine translation. Also and more important the environment is intended to be used for a large class of natural languages at least for those of which morphology may be described in terms of our paradigmatic model Tufis 1989 . In order to reach these objectives we made a clear distinction between the morphological processings and the knowledge governing them. This distinction Is beneficial not only with respect to natural language independence from the processing environment but also with respect to the desired degree of complexity of the procệss in case. The lack of .
