# Spanish
## Language information
* English name: Spanish
* Autonym: español
* ISO code: Spa
## Authors
* Aarne Ranta
With contributions from Inger Andersson, Bruno Cuconato, Inari Listenmaa, and Therese Söderberg.
## Implementation information
The Spanish Resource Grammar is built using the Romance functor at
[romance](../romance/), and it mostly follows Spanish spoken in Spain.
Romance instantiations differ mostly in their morphological modules
and in the constructions defined in the =Diff*= modules. Some relevant features:
* two copulas, ser and estar
* prepositions that contract with articles are *de* and *a*, called `genitive` and `dative` respectively. When forming new prepositions, e.g. *después de* use `mkPrep "después" genitive` to get correct contractions.
* no inversion in question clauses, except for `QuestIComp` and `QuestIAdv`.
### Known issues
* Contractions with *con* and pronouns: *con* + *mí*/*ti*/… should be *conmigo*/*contigo*/…, but the contraction is not implemented.
* Clitic pronouns and their combinations:
```haskell
-- PredVP (UsePron i_Pron) (ComplSlash (SlashVV want_VV (Slash2V3 give_V3 (UsePron he_Pron))) (UsePron it_Pron))
LangEng: i want to give him it
LangSpa: yo lo quiero dar &+ le -- should be dárselo
-- PredVP (UsePron i_Pron) (ComplVV want_VV (ComplSlash (Slash3V3 give_V3 (UsePron it_Pron)) (UsePron he_Pron)))
LangEng: i want to give him it
LangSpa: yo quiero dar &+ lo le -- should be dárselo
```
* Accents in imperatives and infinitives with clitics
```haskell
--ImpVP (ComplSlash (Slash2V3 give_V3 (UsePron i_Pron)) (UsePron it_Pron))
LangEng: give me it
LangSpa: da &+ lo me
```
Ignoring the clitic combination (should be *dámelo*), the verb form *da* should get an accent *dá* to show the correct syllable stress.
## Data
### Besch & Irreg
The [BeschSpa](BeschSpa.gf) and [IrregSpa](IrregSpa.gf) modules contain the complete inflection tables for all different
Spanish verb types. Based on the Functional Morphology [implementation](http://www.cse.chalmers.se/alumni/markus/FM/download/FM_SPA_1.1.tgz) by Inger Andersson and Therese Söderberg.
### DictSpa
This module contains nouns, adjectives and verbs taken from
[Open Multilingual Wordnet](http://compling.hss.ntu.edu.sg/omw/) and [DictionarySpa](https://github.com/GrammaticalFramework/wide-coverage/blob/master/translator/DictionarySpa.gf) (mostly from Wiktionary).
#### Multiwords
Some thousands of multiwords are manually checked. As of February 2019, around 4000 are unchecked. Those are marked in [DictSpa](DictSpa.gf) with `-- to-check segmentation`.
#### Morphology
WIP.
* Where there was a non-1-arg paradigm in the old resources, that is retained.
* All verbs that overlap with IrregSpa use the IrregSpa definition.
* Most of the manually checked multiwords are also checked for morphology, but naturally, errors do occur.
## History and applications
Some applications include:
* [MOLTO phrasebook](http://www.molto-project.eu/sites/default/files/everyday.pdf)
* GF Mathematical Grammar Library ([paper](http://www.molto-project.eu/sites/default/files/gf-mgl.pdf), [demo](http://cloud.grammaticalframework.org/minibar/minibar.html))
* GF [Wide-Coverage translator](http://cloud.grammaticalframework.org/wc.html)
