There are two readings of 'nira': while common nouns usually proceed the word 'nira', the following words can help determine whether or not the word is a pronoun or a determiner. In the determiner case, 'nira' is usually followed by at least two—usually proper—nouns (a compound subject).

Morphological Disambiguation

Initial Level(s) of Ambiguity

Ambiguity before disambiguation: ~1.05008077544426494346

Differentiating a Pronoun from a Determiner

There are two readings of 'nira': while common nouns usually proceed the word 'nira', the following words can help determine whether or not the word is a pronoun or a determiner. In the determiner case, 'nira' is usually followed by at least two—usually proper—nouns (a compound subject).

Pronoun Reading
Kwarta nira [Their money] (Not in corpus)
Before Disambiguation:
  • ^Kwarta/kwarta<n>$ ^nira/hira<prn><pers><p3><pl><pos>/ni<det><pos>+ra<det><pl>$^./.<sent>$
After Disambiguation:
  • ^Kwarta<n>$ ^hira<prn><pers><p3><pl><pos>$^.<sent>$
Ngan amo ini an gintikangan pagbuhat nira [They have begun to do this]
Before Disambiguation:
After Disambiguation:
  • ^Ngan<det><pl>$ ^*amo$ ^ini<prn><det><dem>$ ^an<det><nom>$ ^*gintikangan$ ^*pagbuhat$ ^hira<prn><pers><p3><pl><pos>$^.<sent>$
Determiner Reading
Kwarta nira Rico ngan Bobong [Rico and Bobong's money OR Money of Rico and Bobong]
Before Disambiguation:
  • ^Kwarta/kwarta<n>$ ^nira/hira<prn><pers><p3><pl><pos>/ni<det><pos>+ra<det><pl>$ ^Rico/Rico<np><ant><m>$ ^ngan/ngan<det><pl>$ ^Bobong/Bobong<np><ant><m>$^./.<sent>$
After Disambiguation:
  • ^Kwarta<n>$ ^ni<det><pos>+ra<det><pl>$ ^Rico<np><ant><m>$ ^ngan<det><pl>$ ^Bobong<np><ant><m>$^.<sent>$
Mgbantay pa hiya ha balay nira ni Rhoda ngan Romulo [He will still guard Rhoda and Romulo’s house]
Before Disambiguation:
After Disambiguation:
  • ^*Mgbantay$ ^pa<adv>$ ^hiya<prn><pers><p3><sg><nom>$ ^ha<det><obl>$ ^*balay$ ^hira<prn><pers><p3><pl><pos>$ ^ni<det><pos>$ ^*Rhoda$ ^ngan<det><pl>$ ^*Romulo$^.<sent>$

After Disambiguation

Ambiguity after disambiguation: ~1.05008077544426494346*

  • The ambiguity is the same because there is not yet enough context in the lexicon for the disambiguation to properly disambiguate
