Agr = AgSgP1 | AgSgP2 | AgSgP3 Gender | AgSgP3Gen | AgPl Person | AgPlPol ;
with AgSgP3Gen resp. AgPlPol used for reflexive,possessive forms of "man", "Sie".
Compiles AllGer from src in 162sec with 15M VerbGer.gfo vs. 380sec with 17M VerbGer.gfo
NP.s : Bool => Case => Str and NP.w = WDefArt
np.s ! False : Case => Str is the ordinary paradigm; if the np has a
definite article, np.w = WDefArt, and np.s ! True : Case => Str is the
paradigm with definite article omitted, if np.a = Ag g Sg p.
Prepositions now have type
Prep = {s : GenNum => Str ; s2 :Str ; c : Case ; isPrep : PrepType},
and |Prep| = |Case|*|isPrep| = 4 * 3 = 12, independent of |PCase| >= 18.
A preposition p with p.isPrep = isPrepDefArt has in p.s ! (GSg g) : Str
the preposition glued with definite article of a following np in singular.
The modified linearization categories for Prep, NP, Det, DAP, Quant,
Predet are no longer Prep', NP' etc., but Prep, NP etc. in CatGer.
They are now also used in gf-rgl/tests/german/TestLangGer.gf.
The previous auxiliary files abstract/Adjective'.gf etc. are removed.
BUT: for complexitiy reasons,
- the glueing is omitted in SlashV2VNP : V2V -> NP -> VPSlash -> VPSlash,
- SlashVP : NP -> SlashVP -> ClSlash (in SentenceGer and TestLanGer)
are commented out.
SlashVP causes grammar compilation to crash due to memory limits, probably
because mkClause and its modification mkClSlash are too detailed.
are edited to allow for glued Prep+DefArt, using new categories NP',Det',Quant',
Predet',DAP'.
The previous NP.s : Case => Str*Str allows parsing
"in dem Meer" = in_Prep ++ (np.s ! Case).p1
"im Meer" = in_Prep ++ (np.s ! Case).p2,
but since only one of the strings of (np.s!Case) is used, the tree
contains a metavariable like ?2 (the grammar is "erasing"). (Similarly, if we used
NP.s : Case => Str and NP.s2 : Case => Str.)
To get rid of the metavariables, we have to choose BY A PARAMETER, say
NP.s : droppedDefArt? => Case => Str
Using np.a = Ag g n p, the preposition can select between preposition
alone or preposition with definite article (glued or not), via
Prep = {s : GenNum => Str ; s2 :Str ; c : Case ; isPrep : PrepType }
The combination is done in appPrepNP' and appPrep'. This is
independent of the number of glued Prep+DefArt. But LangGer compiles
now in 200s using 30% memory (without SlashV2VNP). Can AppPrepNP' (and
insertObjNP') be simplified?
- NP: added field isLight in order to push negation behind light nps;
this had been done in gf-3.9 using field isPron, but isPron is now
used to put accusative pronoun before dative pronoun. Removed field
adv: adverbial extensions cannot be extracted (todo: also for CN).
Reduced isLight*isPron to w:Weight with 3 values: WPron, WLight, WHeavy.
- added param Control and field ctrl:Control to classify V2V-verbs into
subject- and object-contol verbs, use ctrl to make reflexives agree
with subject resp. object in VPSlash, and refine ComplSlash.
- Verb: new versions of ComplVV, SlashV2V and SlashVV to give better
(nested) infinitives (extracting infzu and correcting object order).
a) nested SlashVV doesn't work properly;
b) SlashV2VNP may have to be commented out to prevent a stack overflow
when compiling.
Intended change of SlashV2VNP in tests/german/TestLangGer could not
be tested due to size problems with the compiler.
- VP: changed field a1 : Polarity => Str to a1:Str to collect the adverbs
coming before negation, using (negation : Polarity => Str) in mkClause.
Use objCtrl:Bool instead of missingAdv to let reflexives agree with object.
- ResGer: insertObjNP reorganized, infzuVP added
- DictVerbsGer: some corrections (helft -> hilft, *sprecht -> *spricht)
- Some potential passive rules in tests/german/TestLangGer|Eng
- ExtraGer needs to be cleaned up with repect to the modified mkClause.
The -path flags in the RGL modules compiled during 'cabal build' now refer
directly to the needed source directories. References 'alltenses' and 'present'
(and the nonexistent directory 'mathematical') have been removed.
This allows the files to be compiled in any order (e.g. in parallel). In
addition, you can do things like
gf -retain lib/src/api/TrySwe.gf
without compiling/installing any other RGL modules first, and without
setting any other path flags or environment variables.
