Anhand einer korpusgestützten Untersuchung komplexer Adjektive mit dem Erstelement {gender-} mit DeReKoVecs wird gezeigt, welche Möglichkeiten zur differenzierten sprachlichen Integration von neuen Diskurselementen die Wortbildung des Adjektivs bietet. Gerade die zwischen den klassischen Typen Komposition und Derivation stehenden Techniken bieten hier eine erhebliche Bandbreite an Möglichkeiten.
We study German affixoids, a type of morpheme in between affixes and free stems. Several properties have been associated with them – increased productivity; a bleached semantics, which is often evaluative and/or intensifying and thus of relevance to sentiment analysis; and the existence of a free morpheme counterpart – but not been validated empirically. In experiments on a new data set that we make available, we put these key assumptions from the morphological literature to the test and show that despite the fact that affixoids generate many low-frequency formations, we can classify these as affixoid or non-affixoid instances with a best F1-score of 74%.
