A coordination module for a crosslinguistic grammar resource
Scott Drellishak, Emily M. Bender · Proceedings of the International Conference on Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar · 2005
The Grammar Matrix is a resource for linguists writing grammars of natural languages; however, up to this point it has not included support for coordination. In this paper, we survey the typological range of coordination phenomena in the world's languages, then detail the support, both syntactic and semantic, for those phenomena in the Grammar Matrix. Furthermore, we describe the concept of a Matrix module and our software that enables grammar writers to easily produce an extensible starter grammar.
