Aligned Morpheme API #208

Open ghedlund opened 2 years ago

ghedlund commented 2 years ago

Add aligned morpheme API in parallel with AlignedWord API which uses '~' and ' ' (space) as the morpheme boundary marker.

ghedlund commented 2 years ago

Because '~' and '+' are related conceptually in CHAT, '+' will also be a morpheme boundary marker.

The following is an example which shows values from three tiers (identified by letter) and the corresponding alignments. Tokens are in the form A1, B1, etc., but would be the values from our dictionary in practice. '~' indicates a morpheme boundary within a word; spaces are word boundaries; and '*' is used a word placeholder within the tier text.

Tier 1: A1 A2~A3 A4~A5~A6

Tier 2: B1 B2 B3~*~B4

Tier 3: * *~C1 C2~C3~C4

Alignments:

 1) A1, B1, *

 2) A2, B2, *

 3) A3, *, C1

 4) A4, B3, C2

 5) A5, *, C3

 6) A6, B4, C4
