Stems

A stem is what inflectional morphological processes are applied to to form a valid wordform. Inflectional morphology may not be needed for a valid form. Stems can be morphologically complex, being formed by processes like derivation or composition (not yet modeled).

StemTable: stems.csv

Name/Property	Datatype	Cardinality	Description
ID	string	A unique identifier for a row in a table. To allow usage of identifiers as path components of URLs IDs must only contain alphanumeric characters, underscore and hyphen. Primary key
Language_ID	string	A reference to a language (or variety) the stem belongs to
Name	string	A title, name or label for an entity.
Lexeme_ID	string	The lexeme this stem belongs to. References lexemes.csv.
Parameter_ID	list of string (separated by ;)	A reference to the meaning denoted by the stem.
Morpho_Segments	list of string (separated by )	A representation of the morphologically segmented stem.
Segments	list of string (separated by )	A list of segments (aka a sound sequence) is understood as the strict segmental representation of a form unit of a language, which is usually given in phonetic transcription. Suprasegmental elements, like tone or accent, of sound sequences are usually represented in a sequential form, although they are usually co-articulated along with the segmental elements of a sound sequence. Alternatively, suprasegmental aspects could also be represented as part of the prosodic structure of a word form.
Comment	string	A human-readable comment on a resource, providing additional context.
Source	list of string (separated by ;)	List of source specifications, of the form <source_ID>[], e.g. http://glottolog.org/resource/reference/id/318814[34], or meier2015[3-12] where meier2015 is a citation key in the accompanying BibTeX file.
Part_Of_Speech	string	The part-of-speech of dictionary entry. References partsofspeech.csv.
