6 Conclusion
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> We have demonstrated that compound noun interpretation requires the integration of the lexicon, probabilistic information and pragmatics. A similar case can be made for the interpretation of morphologically-derived forms and words in extended usages. We believe that the proposed architecture is theoretically well-motivated, but also practical, since large-scale semi-automatic acquisition of the required frequencies from corpora is feasible, though admittedly time-consuming. However further work is required before we can demonstrate this, in particular to validate or revise the formulae in SS3 and to further develop the compound schemata.</Paragraph>
