  This work describes a system that performs morphological analysis and
generation of Pali words. The system works with regular inflectional paradigms
and a lexical database. The generator is used to build a collection of
inflected and derived words, which in turn is used by the analyzer. Generating
and storing morphological forms along with the corresponding morphological
information allows for efficient and simple look up by the analyzer. Indeed, by
looking up a word and extracting the attached morphological information, the
analyzer does not have to compute this information. As we must, however, assume
the lexical database to be incomplete, the system can also work without the
dictionary component, using a rule-based approach.
