| Details | This paper reports on two new database components for three-kanji (3KCWs) and four-kanji compound words (4KCWs) respectively. More specifically, the paper focuses on the results of analyzing their morphological structures. In contrast to 3KCWs, where the dominant morphological structure involves suffixes attached to existing two-kanji compound words (2KCWs), such as 可能性 /ka-nō-sei/ potentiality; possibility [[can + ability = possible; potential] + nature; -ity ending], for 4KCWs, the dominant structure involves the compounding of two 2KCWs, such as 一人一人 /hitori-hitori/ one by one; each [[one + person] + [one + person]] |
