--1 Rules for predication forming clauses
--
-- This module treats predications in a shallow way, without right-branching
-- $VP$ structures, which have the disadvantage of duplicating rules but the
-- advantage of fast parsing due to elimination of discontinuous constituents.
--
-- The principal way of forming sentences ($S$) is by combining a noun phrase
-- with a verb and its complements.
