Icelandic Morphosyntactic Ontology (IMO): AI-Compatible Morphosyntactic Specification with a Human Learnability Projection Layer (v0.1)
Authors/Creators
Description
The Icelandic Morphosyntactic Ontology (IMO) defines a formal, AI-compatible representation of Icelandic morphosyntax, including closed morphological feature inventories, a typed dependency-style relation system, and a constraint-based validation layer.
Version v0.1 establishes an architectural specification rather than a complete lexical or descriptive grammar. It introduces a formal morphosyntactic model designed for computational compatibility (e.g., NLP validation, dependency parsing alignment), while explicitly separating a derived human learnability projection layer.
The document includes:
(1) Morphological entity system,
(2) Syntactic relation graph layer,
(3) Constraint architecture (agreement, governance, default case assignment),
(4) Dependency matrices,
(5) A structured human learnability projection blueprint.
IMO does not replace existing Icelandic lexical databases or parsing systems (e.g., BÍN, Greynir), but operates at a formal abstraction layer intended for structural modeling and constraint-based validation.
