Gradient Symbolic Representations in Grammar: The case of French Liaison
Longstanding theoretical debates about whether structure A or structure B is the correct analysis of phenomenon X are commonplace. For example, at the juncture of two words W1 and W2, French liaison consonants alternate with zero. Theories of French phonology have long debated whether the consonant is associated with W1 or W2. In this work, we argue for an alternative approach. Phenomena X is n...
متن کاملA French Interaction Grammar
Interaction Grammars (IGs) are a grammatical formalism which uses two fundamental concepts : underspecification and polarity [Per00, Per04]. These concepts apply to both syntax and semantics of natural languages but here, we only consider the syntactic level. In this context, underspecification essentially means underspecification of syntactic trees, and it is expressed using the notion of tree...
متن کاملFrequency Effects on French Liaison
A mainstay of the debates concerning the phonology-syntax interface are phenomena of external sandhi, that is, phonological alternations whose conditioning environment is across a word boundary. 1A recurrent problem in this area is the fact that it is usually impossible to motivate a purely syntactic account of such alternations. This has led to the widespread consensus that the relation betwee...
متن کاملEvaluation of a Grammar of French Determiners
Existing syntactic grammars of natural languages, even with a far from complete coverage, are complex objects. Assessments of the quality of parts of such grammars are useful for the validation of their construction. We evaluated the quality of a grammar of French determiners that takes the form of a recursive transition network. The result of the application of this local grammar gives deeper ...
متن کاملExtension of a grammar of French determiners
Assessments of the quality of parts of syntactic grammars of natural languages are useful for the validation of their construction. We extended a grammar of French determiners that takes the form of a recursive transition network and evaluated its quality. The result of the application of this local grammar gives deeper syntactic information than chunking or information available in treebanks. ...
