| Résumé | In the Quechua language we find less than 1400 simple verbs. But, the language has several strategies to increase this verb lexicon generating new verbs by derivation, making use of a particular set of suffixes. First we construct a Boolean matrix showing the valid compounds of the suffixes doing this job. Then we show how we have programmed certain number of morpho-syntactic NooJ grammars to generate the corresponding compound verbs (over 43160). As a result we present a dictionary of the lexicalized compound verbs, including their Spanish and French translations. We have applied both the dictionary and some grammars for automatically annotate a Quechua text obtaining near 90 % of successful matches. |
