splitting of the pronoun "feara makkárge" #38

Open lynnda-hill opened 2 years ago

lynnda-hill commented 2 years ago

The attributive multi-word pronoun "feara makkárge" is automatically tokenized with a separate particle "ge" before any Constraint Grammar analysis. For grammar rules it is a disadvantage to have a particle between an attributive pronoun and its nominal head. It is also strange when two separate elements are analyzed as a MWE just to split the element in two.

Example sentence:

Olbmuid dieđut eará máilmmeosiin bođii mátkegirjjálašvuođas, man čállin ledje feara makkárge johttit dego mišunárat, jesuihtat, sisafárrejeaddjit, šlávagávppašeaddjit ja soalddáhat.

So what do you want the output / analysis to be?

lynnda-hill commented 2 years ago

I would like to get:

"<feara makkárge>"

instead of:

"<feara makkár>"
snomos commented 10 months ago

After the latest changes in the clitics.lexc file, the analysis is now:

"<feara makkár>"
    "feara makkár" Pron Indef Attr <W:0.0> @OBJ> #11->11
"<ge>"
    "ge" Pcle Foc/Neg-ge <W:0.0> @PCLE #12->12
    "ge" Pcle Foc/Pos-ge <W:0.0> @PCLE #12->12

To avoid this split, we need to lexicalise the pronoun including the clitic. That will give us two analyses that needs to be disambiguated in the mwe-dis.cg3 file. If that is still not good, we need to remove feara makkár from the clitics altogether.

Any preferences, @lynnda-hill and @duomdaamaendra ?

snomos commented 10 months ago

According to the lexc code, feara makkár can take any clitic. Is this true? What is the status of ge in feara makkárge?
