    "abstract": "he past tense has been the source of considerable\ndebate concerning the role of connectionist models in\nexplaining linguistic phenomena. In response to Pinker\nand Prince (1988), several connectionist models have\nbeen developed that compute a mapping between the\npresent tense phonological form of a verb to a past tense\nphonological form. Most of these models cannot\ndistinguish between homophones such as F L Y - F L E W\nand FLY-FLffiD (as in \"flied out\"). Kim. Pinker,\nPrince, & Prasada (1991) have suggested that the\naddition of semantic information to such nets will not\nprovide an adequate solution to this homophony\nproblem. They showed that English speakers use\nderivational status, rather than semantic information in\ngenerating past tenses. W e provide evidence\ncontradicting this account. Subjects' rated preferences\nfor past tense forms are predicted by semantic\nmeasures; moreover, a simulation model shows that\nsemantic distance provides a basis for learning the\nalternative past tenses for words such as F L Y . W e\nsuggest a reconciliation of the two theories in which\nknowledge of \"derivational status\" arises out of\nsemantic facts in the course of learning.",
