Translation of noun phrases
Consider the following example: the chunker identifies the English sequence
the large book
(determiner–adjective–noun) as a noun-phrase chunk. It translates into Kazakh, and assigns it four
chunk-level tags: number (set to singular), person (set to 3rd), possessor (to be determined, as the
noun
кітап ('book') could receive a 3rd-person possesive ending (кітабы) later if the context were,
for instance,
the large book of animals, аңдардың үлкен кітабы), and case (to be determined as it
could be, for instance, accusative in
I saw the large book, Мен үлкен кітапты көрдім ).
