Abstract
In this paper we will present an approach to acquisition of some classes of compound words from large corpora, as well as a method for semi-automatic generation of appropriate linguistic models, that can be further used for compound word recognition and for completion of compound word dictionaries. The approach is intended for a highly inflective language such as Serbo-Croatian. Generated linguistic models are represented by local grammars.
