1. **[Morphemes Without Borders: Evaluating Root-Pattern Morphology in Arabic Tokenizers and LLMs](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/alakeel-2026-morphemes-borders-evaluating-root-pattern/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* The paper asks whether LLMs and their tokenizers actually model Arabic root-and-pattern morphology, where consonantal roots interleave with templatic patterns, or whether they mostly rely on memorized surface forms.
2. **[Morphemes without Borders: Evaluating Root–Pattern Morphology in Arabic Tokenizers and LLMs](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/alakeel-2026-morphemes-without-borders-evaluating-root/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* The authors ask whether the tokenizers of seven LLMs (GPT-4, GPT-4o, LLaMA 3, Qwen 3, Cohere, and the Arabic-centric Fanar and ALLaM) keep Arabic morphemes intact.
