## Noun phrases with symbols and numbers

        fun

          SymbPN   : Symb -> PN ;                -- x
          IntPN    : Int -> PN ;                 -- 27

          CNSymbNP : Det -> CN -> [Symb] -> NP ; -- (the) (2) numbers x and y

## Sentence consisting of a formula

          SymbS    : Symb -> S ;                 -- A

## Symbol lists

A symbol list has at least two elements. The last two are separated by a conjunction (and in English), the others by commas. This produces x, y and z, in English.

        cat
          Symb ;
          [Symb]{2} ;

        fun
          MkSymb : String -> Symb ;

        }
