# KoParadigm: A Korean Conjugation Paradigm Generator

This is the offical repo for our paper: [KoParadigm: A Korean Conjugation Paradigm Generator](https://arxiv.org/abs/2004.13221)

(Inflectional) paradigm means the set of all the inflected forms of a word. For example, English verb "look" has inflected forms like "look", "look-s", "look-ed", and "look-ing", as all of you know.

 Paradigms are widely used in corpus linguistics or search engines.

To create the full paradigm set of a language is sometimes tricky. It is particularly so when we deal with a morphologically rich language like Korean.

Inflection of Korean verbs is notorisouly complicated. Typically, a Korean verb can combine with more than 100 endings. What is worse, the combination rules are not simple at all.

 They are determined by the sound of the verb/ending, and the part-of-speech of the verb (action / descriptive). That's why so far there's no open sources of Korean paradigm generator, I think.

 Here's the first one. With KoParadigm, you can easily get the full paradigm of a Korean verb. 

 

## Dependencies

* python >=3.6

* jamo >=0.4.1

* xlrd == 1.2.0

## Installation

```

pip install koparadigm

```

## Usage

```

>>> from koparadigm import Paradigm, prettify

>>> p = Paradigm()

>>> verb = "곱" # Note that you must drop the final ending 다

>>> paradigms = p.conjugate(verb) # this returns list of lists

>>> print(paradigms)

[['Action Verb', [('거나', '곱거나'), ('거늘', '곱거늘'), ('거니', '곱거니') ...]]]

>>> prettify(paradigms)

POS = Action Verb

• ending = 거나 form = 곱거나

• ending = 거늘 form = 곱거늘

• ending = 거니 form = 곱거니

...

==================== 2 ====================

POS = Descriptive Verb

• ending = 거나 form = 곱거나

• ending = 거늘 form = 곱거늘

• ending = 거니 form = 곱거니

• ending = 거니와 form = 곱거니와

...

```
