A finite transducer that processes Spanish inflectional amt derivational morphology is presented. The system handles both generation astd analysis of tens of millions inflected ibrms. Lexical and surface (orthographic) representations of the words are linked by a program that interprets a finite directed graph whose arcs are labelled by n-tuples of strings. Each of about 55,000 base forms requires at le~t one arc in the graph. Representing the inflectional and derivational possibilities for these forms imposed an overhead of only about 3000 additional arcs, of which about 2500 represent (phonologicallypredictable) stem allomorphy, so that we pay a storage price of about 5% for compiling these form~ offline. A simple interpreter for the resulting automaton processes several hundred words per second on a Sun4.
