infVP, used by for example AdVVP, did not include the new adv field. This caused adverbs to be suppressed when used in infitive clauses, e.g.: Union> l UttS (UseCl TPres ASimul PPos (PredVP (UsePN john_PN)(ComplVV want_VV (AdVVP always_AdV (UseV sleep_V))))) john wants to sleep
DESCRIPTION
The Grammatical Framework (=GF) is a grammar formalism based on type theory.
It consists of
* a special-purpose programming language
* a compiler of the language
* a generic grammar processor
The compiler reads GF grammars from user-provided files, and the
generic grammar processor performs various tasks with the grammars:
* generation
* parsing
* translation
* type checking
* computation
* paraphrasing
* random generation
* syntax editing
GF particularly addresses four aspects of grammars:
* multilinguality (parallel grammars for different languages)
* semantics (semantic conditions of well-formedness, semantic
properties of expressions)
* grammar engineering (modularity, abstractions, libraries)
* embeddability in programs written in other languages (C,C++,
Haskell, Java, JavaScript)
