I began to work in apertium-por. Its CG file uses unification for matching gender and number. Unfortunately, it is not working. I can't see how to correct the behaviour if I continue to use unification (I'm not familiar with CG's unification). Could someone help? The relevant lines are:
LIST Masc = m ; LIST Fem = f ; LIST MascFem = mf ; SET NotMasc = Fem | MascFem ; SET NotFem = Masc | MascFem ; SET Gender = NotMasc | NotFem ; SELECT A + $$Gender IF (0 A + $$Gender) (0 N) (1 N + $$Gender) ; But there is no match for: $ echo "quarto comunista" | apertium -d . por-disam "<quarto>" "quarto" adj m sg "quarto" n m sg "<comunista>" "comunista" adj mf sg "comunista" n mf sg I added two lines to see what is happening: SELECT:testNotMasc A IF (0 NotMasc); SELECT:testNotFem A IF (0 NotFem); And I tried: $ echo "quarto, comunista" | apertium -d . por-disam "<quarto>" "quarto" adj m sg SELECT:366:testNotFem ; "quarto" n m sg SELECT:366:testNotFem "<,>" "," cm "<comunista>" "comunista" adj mf sg SELECT:365:testNotMasc ; "comunista" n mf sg SELECT:365:testNotMasc In seems that in the case of a word with the mf-gender, NotMasc is selected for the ambiguous word "comunista", while "quarto" is NotFem. For seeing that I added these two rules: SELECT:testNotMasc A IF (0 NotMasc); SELECT:testNotFem A IF (0 NotFem); And I got: $ echo "quarto comunista" | apertium -d . por-disam "<quarto>" "quarto" adj m sg SELECT:376:testNotFem ; "quarto" n m sg SELECT:376:testNotFem "<comunista>" "comunista" adj mf sg SELECT:375:testNotMasc ; "comunista" n mf sg SELECT:375:testNotMasc Hèctor
