--1 Interlingua Lexical Paradigms
--
-- Aarne Ranta 2003--2005
-- JP Bernardy 2007
--
-- This is an API for the user of the resource grammar
-- for adding lexical items. It gives functions for forming
-- expressions of open categories: nouns, adjectives, verbs.
--
-- Closed categories (determiners, pronouns, conjunctions) are
-- accessed through the resource syntax API, $Structural.gf$.
--
-- The main difference with $MorphoIna.gf$ is that the types
-- referred to are compiled resource grammar types. We have moreover
-- had the design principle of always having existing forms, rather
-- than stems, as string arguments of the paradigms.
--
-- The structure of functions for each word class $C$ is the following:
-- first we give a handful of patterns that aim to cover all
-- regular cases. Then we give a worst-case function $mkC$, which serves as an
-- escape to construct the most irregular words of type $C$.
-- However, this function should only seldom be needed: we have a
-- separate module [``IrregIna`` ../../english/IrregIna.gf],
-- which covers irregular verbss.

--2 Parameters
--
-- To abstract over gender names, we define the following identifiers.
oper
-- Gender : Type ;
-- There is no grammatical gender in interlingua.
---- To abstract over number names, we define the following.
--
-- Number : Type ;
--
-- singular : Number ;
-- plural : Number ;
-- To abstract over case names, we define the following.
nominative : Case ;
accusative : Case ;
genitive : Case ;
dative : Case ;
ablative : Case ;
-- Prepositions are used in many-argument functions for rection.
-- The resource category $Prep$ is used.
--2 Nouns
--
-- All nouns are regular, so one should use $regN$ to construct them.
--3 Relational nouns
--
-- Relational nouns ("daughter of x") need a preposition.
-- The most common preposition is "of", and the following is a
-- shortcut for regular relational nouns with "of".
regN2 : Str -> N2 ;
--2 Adjectives
-- All adjectives are regular, so on should use $regA$ to construct them.
--3 Two-place adjectives
-- Two-place adjectives need a preposition for their second argument.
mkA2 : A -> Prep -> A2 ;
--2 Adverbs
-- Adverbs are not inflected. Most lexical ones have position
-- after the verb. Some can be preverbal (e.g. "always").
mkAdv : Str -> Adv ;
mkAdV : Str -> AdV ;
-- Adverbs modifying adjectives and sentences can also be formed.
mkAdA : Str -> AdA ;
--2 Prepositions
--
-- A preposition as used for rection in the lexicon, as well as to
-- build $PP$s in the resource API, just requires a string and an expected case.
mkPrep : Str -> Case -> Prep ;
noPrep : Prep ;
--2 Verbs
--
-- Regular verbs should be constructed with $regV$. The 3 irregular verbs
-- esser, haber and vader are available separately.
---- Reflexive verbs.
---- By default, verbs are not reflexive; this function makes them that.
--
reflV : V -> V ;
reflV v = {s = v.s ; part = v.part ; lock_V = v.lock_V ; isRefl = True} ;
--3 2 and many-place verbs
-- I decided to provide the following combinators for forming verbs with
-- complex grammar rules:
prepV2 : Prep -> V -> V2 ;
prepV3 : Prep -> V2 -> V3 ;
dirV2 : V -> V2 ;
mkV0 : V -> V0 ;
mkVS : V -> VS ;
-- mkV2S : V -> Prep -> V2S ;
-- mkVV : V -> VV ;
mkV2V : Prep -> Prep -> V -> V2V ;
mkVA : V -> VA ;
mkV2A : Prep -> Prep -> V -> V2A ;
mkVQ : V -> VQ ;
mkV2Q : Prep -> V -> V2Q ;
mkAS : A -> AS ;
-- mkA2S : A -> Prep -> A2S ;
mkAV : A -> AV ;
mkA2V : A -> Prep -> A2V ;
--
---- Notice: categories $V2S, V2V, V2Q$ are in v 1.0 treated
---- just as synonyms of $V2$, and the second argument is given
---- as an adverb. Likewise $AS, A2S, AV, A2V$ are just $A$.
---- $V0$ is just $V$.
--
V0, V2S, V2V, V2Q : Type ;
AS, A2S, AV, A2V : Type ;

----.

---- The definitions should not bother the user of the API. So they are
---- hidden from the document.
