Abstract

The paper presentsWCCL, a new formalism and toolkit for constructing morpho-syntactic features, a crucial task for many natural language processing algorithms. One existing solution, JOSKIPI, is analysed from two perspectives: features of the formalism as well as software engineering-related issues. Then we propose its successor. A short case study follows, exemplifying the improvement enabled by using rich features expressed with WCCL. The formalism is targeted at Polish, although it seems well suited for any inflectional language.
