What I forgot to state is the most elementary aspect: an ontolex:LexicalEntry can be associated with a (nonconcatenative) morph:Morph or a (nonconcatenative) morph:Rule/morph:Replacement in the following ways: - for word formation: the lexical entry (e.g., a lexinfo:Root) from which one or more derived forms can be encoded as the vartrans:source of a morph:WordFormationRelation and an associated morph:WordFormationRule - for inflection: the lexical entry can have an ontolex:morphologicalPattern relation pointing to a morph:Paradigm. Such paradigms are the morph:paradigm of morph:InflectionRules.
Both morph:InflectionRule and morph:WordFormationRule are morph:Rules and can thus be connected to a non-concatenative morpheme (or replacement) as described in the other email. Our current real-world examples for noncontenative morphology are from word formation, only. I guess your usecase is more in the inflection area (because for word formation, it would be practical to give a lexical sense, and then you'd need a LexicalEntry anyway), but the noncontenative part of the specification (by means of regular expressions and capturing groups in morph:Replacement) is identical in both use scenarios.
