This is a continuation of the authors' paper of the same title which appeared in Volume 8 of this journal. The present part extends the authors' definitions of prefix and suffix (in written English) to corpora of three-vowel-string words, and implements them on a corpus K consisting of 19,329 graphemically distinct three-vowel-string words from the Shorter Oxford Dictionary. | Mechanical Translation and Computational Linguistics vol.9 no.2 June 1966 The Nature off Affixing in Written English Part II by H. L. Resnikoff and J. L. Dolby The Institute for Advanced Study Princeton New Jersey and R D Consultants Company Los Altos California This is a continuation of the authors paper of the same title which appeared in Volume 8 of this journal. The present part extends the authors definitions of prefix and suffix in written English to corpora of three-vowel-string words and implements them on a corpus K consisting of 19 329 graphemically distinct three-vowel-string words from the Shorter Oxford Dictionary. The notion of a parasitic affix is introduced and the parasitic suffixes for K are determined. This paper is a continuation of reference 1 which will be called Part I throughout . In that paper1 a systematic procedure for finding English affixes was briefly described and the results of applying the procedure to the CVCVC words in the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary were given. Here we will present several refinements of the procedure used in Part I and apply the technique to the study of affixes in the three-vowel-string words that is CVCVCVC words. There are some novelties which arise. Among these the most important is certainly the occurrence of suffixes which primarily occur attached to other suffixes. Evidently these could not be found from an investigation of the two-vowel-string words and so they did not make their appearance in Part I. Another new feature is the occurrence of two-vowel-string affixes which cannot occur in two-vowel-string words for obvious reasons. Except where otherwise noted the terminology and definitions are those used in Part I. The reader should note the recently published work of Monroe 2 which forms an interesting complement to our investigations Notational Refinements Before coming to the proper subject of this paper we would like to make corrections to Part I and to introduce some minor refinements of .
