  1. Pattern-and-root inflectional morphology: the Arabic broken plural

    Researchers have developed a new model for Arabic inflectional morphology, specifically focusing on broken plurals. This model reverses the traditional root-and-pattern approach to a pattern-and-root system, prioritizing patterns over roots. It separates inflection from derivation and semantics, and analyzes Arabic text directly from a word dictionary without needing morphophonological rules. The system classifies nouns with triliteral broken plurals into 22 patterns and 90 classes, and quadriliteral broken plurals into 3 patterns and 70 classes, resulting in 300 inflectional classes when singular variations are considered.

    IMPACT This research could improve natural language processing for Arabic by providing a more structured and efficient way to handle inflectional morphology.
