Abstract
SWETWOL is implemented in the framework of Koskenniemi's (1983) two-level model. It contains a 48,000 item lexicon and a full inflectional description. Special attention was paid to the design of a computational analysis of productive Swedish compounds. Recall (coverage) and precision of SWETWOL meet high standards. SWETWOL has been extensively tested on various types of texts.
