Dataset Summary

The Universal Morphology (UniMorph) project is a collaborative effort to improve how NLP handles complex morphology in the world’s languages. The goal of UniMorph is to annotate morphological data in a universal schema that allows an inflected word from any language to be defined by its lexical meaning, typically carried by the lemma, and by a rendering of its inflectional form in terms of a bundle of morphological features from our schema. The specification of the schema is described in Sylak-Glassman (2016).

Dataset Structure

Data Instances

Each data instance comprises of a lemma and a set of possible realizations with morphological and meaning annotations. For example:

{'forms': {'Aktionsart': [[], [], [], [], []],
  'Animacy': [[], [], [], [], []],
  ...
  'Finiteness': [[], [], [], [1], []],
  ...
  'Number': [[], [], [0], [], []],
  'Other': [[], [], [], [], []],
  'Part_Of_Speech': [[7], [10], [7], [7], [10]],
  ...
  'Tense': [[1], [1], [0], [], [0]],
  ...
  'word': ['ablated', 'ablated', 'ablates', 'ablate', 'ablating']},
 'lemma': 'ablate'}

Data Fields

Each instance in the dataset has the following fields:

• lemma: the common lemma for all all_forms
• forms: all annotated forms for this lemma, with:
  • word: the full word form
  • [category]: a categorical variable denoting one or several tags in a category (several to represent composite tags, originally denoted with A+B). The full list of categories and possible tags for each can be found here
