+<h1> The Ontology of the Phrasebook</h1>
+
+<h2> Syntactic Structures of the Phrasebook</h2>
+This module contains phrases that can be defined by a functor over the
+resource grammar API. The phrases that are likely to have different implementations
+are in the module Words. But the distinction is not quite sharp; thus it may happen
+that the functor instantiations make exceptions.
+<pre>
+  abstract Sentences = Numeral ** {
+</pre>
+
+The ontology of the phrasebook is defined by the following types. The commented ones
+are defined in other modules.
+<pre>
+    cat
+      Phrase ;      -- complete phrase, the unit of translation  e.g. "Where are you?"
+      Sentence ;    -- declarative sentence                      e.g. "I am in the bar"
+      Question ;    -- question, either yes/no or wh             e.g. "where are you"
+      -- Greeting ; -- idiomatic phrase, not inflected,          e.g. "hello"
+      Proposition ; -- can be turned into sentence or question   e.g. "this pizza is good"
+      Object ;      -- the object of wanting, ordering, etc      e.g. "three pizzas"
+      Item ;        -- a single entity                           e.g. "this pizza"
