For morphological tagging, transformer models show promising potential, but the best approach to use these models is unclear. For both languages, this paper examines the impact of using morphological lexica, training different model types (a single model with a combined feature tag, multiple models for separate features, and a multi-task model for all features), and adding linguistic constraints. We find that, although simply fine-tuning transformers to predict a monolithic tag may already yield decent results, each of these adaptations can further improve tagging accuracy.},
