    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.
