I hadn't considered the other uses, but I've come up with a better
solution that takes them into consideration and shouldn't break pairs
relying on apertium-eng.
Basically, the genitive form would be added as generation-only for
paradigms with a regular ('s) genitive. The would allow apertium to
detect the 's as both a genitive and a verb during analysis, and at
the same time provide an easy way to generate the genitive when
needed. Example:
<pardef n="house__n">
<e> <p><l></l> <r><s n="n"/><s n="sg"/></r></p></e>
<e r="RL"><p><l>'s</l> <r><s n="n"/><s n="sg"/><s
n="gen"/></r></p></e>
<e> <p><l>s</l> <r><s n="n"/><s n="pl"/></r></p></e>
<e> <p><l>s'</l> <r><s n="n"/><s n="pl"/><s
n="gen"/></r></p></e>
</pardef>
Verb contractions are currently limited to pronoun+verb combinations,
so I'd have to add 's independently as both a form of is and has.
Nothing would be removed, only added, so other pairs should be
unaffected.
I really think it would be better to not use <gen> like that, and
instead use:
<pardef n="house__n">
<e> <p><l></l> <r><s n="n"/><s n="sg"/></r></p></e>
<e r="RL"><p><l>'s</l> <r><s n="n"/><s n="sg"/><j/>'s<s
n="gen"/></r></p></e>
<e> <p><l>s</l> <r><s n="n"/><s n="pl"/></r></p></e>
<e r="RL"> <p><l>s'</l> <r><s n="n"/><s n="pl"/><j/>'s<s
n="gen"/></r></p></e>
</pardef>
Note, if you did want to do analysis of those two, you'd need to also
add:
<e> <p><l>s'</l> <r><s n="n"/><s n="pl"/><j/>'<s
n="apos"/></r></p></e>
And disambiguate it in CG.
