Arabic is known for the richness and complexity of its morphology and syntax. This is why Arabic has always posed a challenge for computational processing and served as a hard testing ground for new methods and models. This book provides an in-depth study of the Arabic morphology and syntax from a theoretical and computational point of view with emphasis on the ambiguity problem. The book discusses the different development strategies of Arabic morphological analysis and explains the architecture of a new powerful morphological analyser that has a significantly fewer number of ambiguities. It investigates the interesting phenomena of multi-word expressions with their varying categories, structures and degree of semantic opaqueness. The book formulates a description of the main syntactic structures of Arabic, examining word order, agreement, long-distance dependencies, and copula constructions. The book tackles the daunting problem of syntactic disambiguation. It identifies the sources...
