A Morphological Analyzer for Reduplicated Manipuri Adjectives and Adverbs: Applying Compile-Replace

Finite-state implementations naturally denote concatenations of morphemes and are limited to modeling concatenative morphotactics. The non-concatenative structure, such as reduplication, in the computational morphology of many world languages cannot be handled completely by finite-state technology. This paper describes the non-concatenative phenomena of reduplication, occurs in the adjective and adverb word classes of Manipuri language using the formalism of finite-state morphology tools and techniques. The discussion covers the non-concatenative nature and the challenges in capturing the various reduplication phenomena exhibited by the two classes; then present a morphological analyzer of the reduplicated adjectives and adverbs. It has been implemented using XFST and LEXC with the application of compile-replace algorithm to the morphotactics description of the language, which includes finite-state operations other than concatenation, to capture reduplication phenomena.
