FrancophonIA/Romance_Verbal_Inflection_Dataset_2.0.4

[!NOTE] Dataset origin: https://zenodo.org/records/4039059

This Database is an open source and downloadable version of the Oxford Database of the Inflectional Morphology of the Romance Verb, as a CLDF WordList module. It is intended to facilitate quantitative analysis.

This version was created in the following way:

• —We scraped the online database to reconstruct an image of the original database,
• —We then reorganized, cleaned up, and normalized the resulting tables into a CLDF WordList, adding metadata when needed.
• —We added latin entries from LatInfLexi 1.1

The scripts used for that purpose can be found in the scraping and formatting the ODRVM repository.

The original documentation can be found online at http://romverbmorph.clp.ox.ac.uk/.

• —The table parameters.csv is a ParameterTable which describes the morphosyntactic cells of the paradigm. It was made manually following the online documentation, which is quoted in the "description" field. The IDs are used in the forms table. The 'Continuants' column links latin paradigm cells to their continuant labels.

• —The table cognatesets.csv is a CognateSetTable. It provides information for each unique etymon. The IDs are used in the form and lexeme tables. The LemLat_ID links back latin etymons to LatInFlexi identifiers.

• —The lexemes.csv table is a custom table which provides a meaning and a potential comment for each lexeme, that is each instance of an etymon in a given variety.

• —form.csv is a FormTable representing a paradigm in long form, where each row corresponds to a specific form in one variety. The table refers to the languages, cognatesets and parameter tables through respectively the LanguageID, CognateSetID and Cell columns.

Character Inventory -------------------

Forms are entered in IPA notation, using the following characters.

In addition:

• —parenthesis mark elements which are only optionally or variably present in pronunciation
• —brackets mark clitics when either we do not have an example of that form without the clitic and, or when it is possible that without the clitic the form of the verb would be slightly different.
