Tree-local MCTAG with Shared Nodes: Word Order Variation in German and Korean
نویسندگان
چکیده
Tree Adjoining Grammars (TAG) are known not to be powerful enough to deal with scrambling in free word order languages. The TAGvariants proposed so far in order to account for scrambling are not entirely satisfying. Therefore, an alternative extension of TAG is introduced based on the notion of node sharing. Considering data from German and Korean, it is shown that this TAG-extension can adequately analyse scrambling data, also in combination with extraposition and topicalization.

Tree-local MCTAG with Shared Nodes: An Analysis of Word Order Variation in German and Korean
Les Grammaires d’Arbres Adjoints (TAG) sont connues pour ne pas être assez puissantes pour traiter le brouillage d’arguments dans des langues à ordre des mots libre. Les variantes TAG proposées jusqu’à maintenant pour expliquer le brouillage ne sont pas entièrement satisfaisantes. Nous présentons ici une extension alternative de TAG, basée sur la notion du partage de noeuds. En considerant des ...
متن کاملA Polynomial-Time Parsing Algorithm for TT-MCTAG
This paper investigates the class of TreeTuple MCTAG with Shared Nodes, TTMCTAG for short, an extension of Tree Adjoining Grammars that has been proposed for natural language processing, in particular for dealing with discontinuities and word order variation in languages such as German. It has been shown that the universal recognition problem for this formalism is NP-hard, but so far it was not...
متن کاملTuLiPA - Parsing Extensions of TAG with Range Concatenation Grammars
In this paper we present a parsing framework for extensions of Tree Adjoining Grammars (TAG) called TuLiPA (Tübingen Linguistic Parsing Architecture). In particular, besides TAG, the parser can process Tree-Tuple MCTAG with shared nodes (TT-MCTAG), a TAG-extension that has been proposed to deal with scrambling in free word order languages such as German. The central strategy of the parser is su...
متن کاملTree-Local Multicomponent Tree-Adjoining Grammars with Shared Nodes
This article addresses the problem that the expressive power of tree-adjoining grammars (TAGs) is too limited to deal with certain syntactic phenomena, in particular, with scrambling in freeword-order languages. The TAG variants proposed so far in order to account for scrambling are not entirely satisfying. Therefore, the article introduces an alternative extension of TAG that is based on the n...
متن کاملFactorizing Complementation in a TT-MCTAG for German
TT-MCTAG lets one abstract away from the relative order of co-complements in the final derived tree, which is more appropriate than classic TAG when dealing with flexible word order in German. In this paper , we present the analyses for senten-tial complements, i.e., wh-extraction, that-complementation and bridging, and we work out the crucial differences between these and respective accounts i...
