ZAPATA, CARLOS MARIO  y  MESA, JHON EDISON. A PROPOSAL FOR MORPHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF VERBS IN THE SPANISH LANGUAGE. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2009, vol.76, n.157, pp.27-36. ISSN 0012-7353.

The morphological analysis of verbs in the Spanish language is a difficult task due to the fact that they present special features. One of these features is related to the big amount of conjugation forms of a verb, and this fact makes difficult the automatic generation of these conjugations. Currently, there are proposals of verb analyzers, which make lemmatization and conjugation of verbs, but they still exhibit some problems. In this article, we propose a template-based morphological analyzer with the purpose of generalizing verb conjugations. The templates aim to make the conjugation and lemmatization processes without the need of independently saving all possible conjugation forms of a verb. The morphological analyzer was implemented in the programming language Python, to take advantage of the capabilities of this language for string manipulation.

Palabras clave : Conjugation; Lemmatization; Model Verbs; Morphological Analysis; Templates; Generation.
