Lab 7 Grading Rubric I'd like to see two message relations when it's definitely a question: a question wrapped around a proposition (this is for compatibility with other grammars) ---------------------------------------------------------------- All the sentences in the test suite that use the verb "read" intransitively did not parse because the verb was entered in the lexicon only as a transitive. The intransitive was added. You might want to treat this as indefinite null instantiation. idy_paal := clause-embedding-verb-lex & [ STEM < "idy:PAAL" >, INFLECTED -, SYNSEM.LOCAL.CAT.HEAD.VERB-PRESENT-TENSE-SG-F-SUFFIX-TYPE t-suffix, SYNSEM.LKEYS.KEYREL.PRED "_know_v_rel" ]. Can't you move [ INFLECTED - ] up to some type? Your grammar currently isn't generating from sentences over about 3 words long. You probably want to make sure it can before the MT extravaganza. I suspect that it's a combination of lots of legitimate variation (e.g. in word order) and lots that isn't --- you'll want to increase the limit on edges in the gen chart, and then see if you can cut out any spurious strings.
