Linguistics 471: Grammar Engineering

Preparation for Lab 1 (again)

• Replace the file matrix.tdl in your grammar with this updated version. (Fixes a bug in basic-head-subj-phrase).

Instructions from the first time around:

• Choose a language
• From that language, bring:
  • One transitive verb
  • One intransitive verb
  • Two common nouns
  • Determiners or particles necessary to complete NPs (as appropriate)
• Familiarize yourself with the basics of case and agreement in your language.
• If you don't already know how to use emacs, do the emacs tutorial. (Available from the help menu.)
