Description of Old Czech Common Nouns Declension (with regard to Automatic Morphological Analysis of Texts in Old Czech Text Bank)

Publication at Faculty of Arts |
2017

Abstract

The monograph presents an explicit description of the Old Czech (roughly 1300-1500) common noun declension, which can serve as a basis for the automatic generation of common nouns word forms connected with morphological characteristics and lemma. These forms can then be used for assigning morphological categories (gender, number and case) and lemma to the word forms occurring in the electronized transcribed Old Czech texts.

The work consists of the description of the endings of the declension types, the description of the changes in the word stems accompanying the declension, the description of the formal changes connected with the Old Czech period and the list of lemmas for the word forms generation.
