3.3.11.1. Notes

Particles were extracted from the IPIC particle-adverbs category manually along with adverbs, pronouns and interjections and a few conjunctions. The Clitic attribute enables differentiating particles that are agglutinated to non-particles (value= "a"), e.g., by, że. The value "y" labels a composite particle such as niechby when treated as one word; alternatively it may be encoded as a aequence of two particles, the optionally demanding niech with Clitic="d" and the agglutinant by with Clitic="a".

3.3.11.2. MSD Index

This index gives the list of morphosyntactic descriptions and their features. The first column gives the MSD, the second its expansion into a feature-structure, the third the number of word tokens (100% = 730,518 tokens) tagged with this MSD, and the fourth gives some examples as word-form/lemma. The list was obtained from the IPIC with the help of the IPIC-to-MTE conversion procedure. Even though it is limited by the content of the corpus, it hopefully gives an exhaustive picture of MSD types for Polish. The numbers of tokens also come from IPIC, although during conversion word segmentation is revised.
