Hi all, <br /><br />I'm running some CLAN FREQ searches for my MA thesis and could use advice on how to handle German verbs in the %mor tier. I'm trying to calculate frequency of transitive verbs in German child-directed speech, but I'm running into problems with separable-prefix verbs. <br /><br />On the %mor tier, I've noticed that separable-prefix verbs appear as the correct lemma (ex. <em>anrufen</em>) when they are in the infinitive. But in finite forms where the prefix is separated, the prefix is often tagged as an adverb/particle (ex. adv|an v|rufen). Because of this, it's hard for me to get accurate lemma counts.<br /><br />I’ve also come across instances where multiword sequences such as <i>darunter bauen</i> (“build underneath it”) are analyzed as a pseudo-lemma like <i>darunterbauen</i>.<br /><ul><li>Is there a way in CLAN/MOR to consistently output the full verb lemma (prefix + stem) without going line by line?</li><li>Is there a recommended process to recombine prefix+ stem (but avoid false lemmas like <i>darunterbauen</i>)?</li></ul>As a separate problem, I’ve also noticed that some forms of wissen (like <i>weiß</i>) are being tagged as <i>weißen </i>(“to whiten”) on the %mor tier. <br /><ul><li>Is this a known issue in the German MOR grammar?</li><li>Is there a standard fix for this in CLAN?</li></ul><div>Thank you so much!<br /><br />Sincerely,</div>Lanna<br /><br />
