restarting ParGram?
by Agnieszka Patejuk 28 Aug '21

28 Aug '21

Hi, I am sending this message to all potentially relevant lists (ParGram, XLE, LFG, ParSem) so as to maximise the chance that it will reach people who are interested in this topic. If you know someone who might be interested but is not subscribed to these lists, please consider letting them know. The question is: who would be interested in restarting ParGram meetings? I am not sure what would be the best way to organise this discussion, so I am suggesting the following: • if you think your answer might be of interest to many people (for instance, it might spark a discussion), please consider replying to the list(s) • if not, please reply only to me – I will later go through the responses and post a summary to the relevant lists. I hope that later we can discuss this topic in more detail with people who have expressed interest. All best, Agnieszka

Spanish grammar?
by Olga Zamaraeva 17 Aug '21

17 Aug '21

Dear ParGram members, Is there a Spanish grammar implemented with LFG? (I looked in the wiki but didn't find anything.) If there is one, has it been used in any "writing coaching" (aka grammar coaching, CALL) initiatives? Many thanks, -- Olga

[XLE] generation from s-structure (rather than f-structure)
by Forst, Martin 01 Sep '19

01 Sep '19

Hi Ron and John, hi all, I've written a small grammar with an s:: projection from the f-structure. Parsing works as expected, and so does regeneration as long as I don't add or remove features. However, my ultimate goal is to generate from s-structures, so I've manually reduced some files resulting from parsing to just the respective s-structures and tried generating from those. Even though I've made all f-structure features addable, generation fails. (And so does regeneration when I make that same list of features removable and addable.) Am I trying something that the generator isn't made for (yet)? Thanks, Martin On October 1, Nuance Automotive will become Cerence Inc. - A.I. for a world in motion.

[XLE] running transfer on XLE for linux?
by Agnieszka Patejuk 14 Aug '19

14 Aug '19

Dear All, I would like to ask you for help with running transfer on XLE for linux – while it is possible to run transfer on MacOS using this XLE distribution: xle-intelmac-2009-09-18.tar.gz, I could not get transfer running using the 64-bit linux counterpart of this version: xle-linux2.3-64-2009-09-18.tar.gz. The linux package can be obtained from Konstanz redmine (https://typo.uni-konstanz.de/redmine/projects/xle/dmsf?folder_id=1). Is there anyone who can run transfer using xle-linux2.3-64-2009-09-18.tar.gz? I have no problem running XLE itself. However, when I try to run transfer like this (as described in http://ling.uni-konstanz.de/pages/xle/doc/walkthrough.html#Transfer_Walkthr…; I am attaching the relevant files for convenience): % create-transfer % create-parser demo-eng.lfg % load-transfer-rules demo-eng-xfr.pl I get the following error (after load-transfer-rules): % ERROR: No Sicstus Prolog for this platform. % Transfer system couldn't reload rules. I would be very grateful for your help. Best regards, Agnieszka

[XLE] Porting XLE for a south Asian language (Sinhala)
by Gayan Kavirathne 10 Apr '19

10 Apr '19

Hi All, I'm trying to port XLE for Sinhala Language (Sinhalese). Up to now, I've been successful in generating the grammar parsed correctly. But letters don't appear in the tcl/tk windows. Output can be properly seen in prolog files. So, I assume that the problem is with font rendering in tcl/tk. Is there anyone who has dealt with such situations? How can I download the source files for XLE? Best regards!

help needed for implementing complex categories
by Leonel F. de Alencar 15 Feb '18

15 Feb '18

Hi everybody! I'd like to implement complex categories in my Brazilian Portuguese LFG/XLE grammar. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any toy grammar with this feature to guide my first steps. Following Butt et. al. (1999:192) and Stefanie Dipper's dissertation from 2003, I've tried to implement the attached toy DP grammar using complex categories, but none of the grammatical examples in the testfile.lfg are parsed. Could someone explain to me where I'm wrong and possibly correct the grammar so that these examples are parsed? Just for the sake of learning how to deal with complex categories, I've assumed that DPs like "we Brazilians" are headed by the personal pronoun (i.e. D[pron]). In the case of D[pron], NP is optional. With an article as head (i.e. D[art]), however, NP is obligatory. Many thanks in advance.
