feminines with -en dative (singular)? #82

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

If a linguistic problem:
What wordform makes the faulty analysis occur?

> Zielgeraden
Ziel<NN>Gerade<+NN><Fem><Akk><Pl>
Ziel<NN>Gerade<+NN><Fem><Gen><Pl>
Ziel<NN>Gerade<+NN><Fem><Nom><Pl>
Ziel<NN>Gerade<+NN><Fem><Dat><Pl>

"Geraden" can be dative singular, in phrases such as "auf der Zielgeraden". 
Problem: there doesn't seem to be an inflection class that covers this case. 
Also, the -n is optional, and you can also find "auf der Zielgerade".

canoo puts "Gerade" into the inflection class 'adjektivisch' 
(http://canoo.net/services/OnlineGrammar/InflectionRules/FRegeln-N/FKlassen/Adje
ktivisch1.html). The dative 'n' is mandatory. Should we add something similar 
to morphisto (probably with optional dative 'n')?

1. An inflection class <NFem-Adj> (analogous to <NMasc-Adj>), possibly also 
<NNeut-Adj>, may be a good idea. However, the derivational rules seem to do a 
good job for words like "Kleine" or "Große".

2. I disagree with the canoo analysis of "die Gerade" (as in 'straight line'). 
It doesn't seem to belong to the inflection class "adjektivisch". According to 
canoo, one would say *"Ich zeichne gerne Gerade" (instead of "Ich zeichne gerne 
Geraden"). I would argue that the inflection of "Gerade" is as follows (no 
matter if it follows an article or not):

Sg.
Nom die Gerade
Akk die Gerade
Dat der Gerade(n)
Gen der Gerade(n)

Pl.
Nom die Geraden
Akk die Geraden
Dat der Geraden
Gen der Geraden
