Large Database of English Pseudo-compounds (LaDEP)

- Author(s) / Creator(s)

The Large Database of English Pseudo-compounds (LaDEP) contains nearly 7,500 English words which mimic, but do not truly possess, a compound morphemic structure. These pseudo-compounds can be parsed into two free morpheme constituents (e.g., car-pet), but neither constituent functions as a morpheme within the overall word structure. The items were manually coded as pseudo-compounds, further coded for features related to their morphological structure (e.g., presence of multiple affixes, as in ruler-ship),
When using this database please cite the accompanying journal article (full details available at the journal website).
