Nous supDosons une certaine familiarisation avec le module transformationnel de descriptions linguistiques expos~ par Chomsky dans Aspects of the theor~of syntax (1965). Ainsi nous insisterons surtout sur ce en quoi GRAMMAIRE-I s'~carte de ce module. Signalons tout d'abord qu'elle ne contient pas de composante lexicale ni de r~gles de sous-cat~gorisation. La base donc est incomplete: elle conti...

Commonly used gralm~mrs which describe i~turai lan~uages /ex. ATN, Metamorphosis Grammars/ can be hardly applied in describing higly inflectional languages. So I propose a grammar called the grammar with natural context which takes into consideration properties of higly inflectional languages /ex. Polish / as well as structural languages /ex. English/. I introduce its normal form.

— We study three sequences of polynomials defined as successive derivatives with respect to a differential operator associated with a grammar (one of these sequences was originally introduced by Ramanujan). Combinatorial interpretations for these polynomials are found in terms of rooted trees and graphs of mappings from [n] to [n]. Introduction Dans [Ra], [B], Ramanujan (et B. Berndt à sa suite...

L'étude examine des "speech-laughs" (rire dans la parole) dans un corpus de dialogues spontanés pour la langue allemande. La majorité des rires étiquetés recouvre la parole au lieu de l'interrompre comme attendu. La qualité phonétique typique pour les "speech-laughs" est une aspiration supplémentaire (différente pour les sons voisés et non voisés), parfois accompagnée par un vibrato dans la pho...

VerbNet is an English lexical resource for verbs that has proven useful for English NLP due to its high coverage and coherent classification. Such a resource doesn’t exist for other languages, despite some (mostly automatic and unsupervised) attempts. We show how to semi-automatically adapt VerbNet using existing resources designed for different purposes. This study focuses on French and uses t...
