    <Paragraph position="1"> S~c6 in our appr_oach .the morphological processes .obey a paradigmatic morphology (Ttt~.- 19~), word-f6rms analysis and synthesis take into account, ont~ grammatical endings.(wlj.'ch indudes both desinences and sutr@s. ) and the lexicons handled by MORPHO-2 system are root- or lemma-oriented. By. lexicon we don't mean only a collection of roots and associated features. At lexicon level we also encounter the control structures needed for morphological prow.ssi~, morpho-lexical acquisition menus, root modification rules, word-forms synthesis rules, etc. The services provided by the system may be chC/.~ified according to the follox;vhag, g o,o,~: morphological model .design, lexi.cal st6ck building and morpho-lexicfil pro6essing(Dumitrescu, 1991).</Paragraph>
