Електронна лексикографічна система «Морфограф»: теоретичні засади та методика конструювання (проект)

Abstract

The article describes theoretical issues, principles of construction and problems set in the project of creating the “Morphograph” electronic lexicographical system representing Ukrainian language morphemics. This system is created on the basis of linguistic morphemic data base containing 200,000 words which applies computer modelling technique of structural-functional connections of morphs in a word. The morphemic data base provides the following benefits: automatic classification of Ukrainian language lexicon according to different parameters of morphemic structure of a word (quantity of morphemes in a word, models of morphemic structures, specified affix or root morph); automatic compilation of root and affix lists on the basis of a dictionary of initial word forms. The “Morphograph” lexicographical system is based on theoretical principles of modern morphemology and sets a goal to systematize and describe basic units of the Ukrainian language morphemic system – morphs, morphemes and morphemic structures of words – in two electronic dictionaries: Dictionary of morphemic structures of words and Dictionary of morphemes. Each dictionary will be compiled in interactive mode according to the user’s specified search options and it will also provide the function of copying an automatically compiled list of units.
