INFERENCE OF MEANINGS FOR DERIVATIVE WORDS IN MALAYSIAN LANGUAGE

概要

Malaysian (Malay) language has numerous derivative words. Some of them are predictable by rules because the derivational processes in Malay language are highly regular. In the previous attempts at implementation of a Malay-to-Japanese machine translation, all those words were listed in the lexicon. Therefore, many lexical entries were required. In our at-tempt, we have eliminated the need for many lexical entries by reducing the Malay derivational processes to a set of morphological rules. We have developed a Malay derivative word analysis system that, investigates affixes and base words in derivative words, provides some information about them and finally, infers their meanings from the categories of the affixes and the base words. To evaluate the system, we have applied it to our Malay-to-Japanese machine translation.
