5. Conclusion
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> From the perspective of knowledge acquisition and maintenance, WM has a number of properties that distinguish it from current finite-state morphology systems in a positive way. It has a larger coverage, including compounding, prefixation, and multi-word units; compilation is much more generic in that it enables flexible use of information in the database; and knowledge acquisition is supported by tailor-made interfaces for linguists and lexicographers. Therefore, WM is a tool that may be seen as an ideal supplement for today's finite-state analyzers and transducers and thus a further step towards the development of truly reusable dictionaries.</Paragraph>
