We want to announce a new linguistic online service, the
German Morphology Browser which can be found at

http://services.canoo.com/MorphologyBrowser.html

Background:

The German Morphology Browser is powered by the WordManager
Transducer Toolkit. The program knows 1.2 million German
words, their morphosyntactic features, and their mapping to
some 130'000 lexemes. In addition, it contains all relationships
between simple and complex lexemes. Out of the 130'000 lexemes,
only 13.4% are simple. The other entries are complex and are
constructed out of simple lexemes.

This resource serves as basis for various innovative Web
applications as e.g. for Language Learning, Information Retrieval,
Hyperlink Generation.

Like other forthcoming Language Products of the Canoo Engineering
AG the German Morphology Browser is based on a cooperation with
the University of Basel, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, and IDSIA
Lugano.
