Nonetheless, there are many applications in language industry which consider a CLE an unfordable luxury. We believe that such an objection may be refused if the CLE is so designed that it should function in a data-driven manner.", |

A proper ending is represented by the concatenation of the letters labelling the nodes along a certain path, starting from a terminal node towards the root of the tree (this organization is due to the retrograde parsing strategy (Kotkova 1985) used in our system). A terminal node is not necessarilY a leaf node because of the possibility of including one ending into a longer one. Such a case is called intrinsic ambiguity. All terminal nodes are attached to the paradigmatic information specific to the endings they stand for. More often than not, an ending does not uniquely identify a paradigm but:a set of paradigms. In this case, the ending is called extrinsically ambiguous. Both types of ambiguity are theoretically solved by checks on the congruency between paradigmatic information attached to the respective endings (taken from the endings tree) and the candidate roots (taken from their dictionary entries).", |

Yet, we have to say that the proper morpho-lexical processings (analysis and generation), were thought to work in a concurrent manner. For instance reading characters from the keyboard, parsing individual word-forms, spelling checking and parsing syntagms are usually simultaneously active proceases; similarly, individual word-forms generation and syntagms expansion are typical coroutines.", |

With the endings, due to the limited number and limited length and thanks to the discriminating organization of the endings tree, the recovery is much more precise (the recovery is always complete when the root was found in the dictionary).", |
