VeLeCa: A verbal lexicon of Catalan with PCFP analysis

This paper presents VeLeCa, a new resource on Catalan verbal inflection containing the phonological form of 174,200 word forms from 3,484 lexemes and their respective lexical and morphosyntactic values and frequencies. We describe the challenges and procedure we followed in the compilation and phonemization of this resource, and conduct a computational analysis of the Paradigm Cell Filling Problem (i.e. morphological predictive complexity) in the system to contrast it with those from related Romance languages.

Abstract

This paper presents VeLeCa, a new resource on Catalan verbal inflection containing the phonological form of 174,200 word forms from 3,484 lexemes and their respective lexical and morphosyntactic values and frequencies. We describe the challenges and procedure we followed in the compilation and phonemization of this resource, and conduct a computational analysis of the Paradigm Cell Filling Problem (i.e. morphological predictive complexity) in the system to contrast it with those from related Romance languages.
