This chapter discusses the main tenets of Construction Grammar (CxG) and shows that
HPSG adheres to them. The discussion includes surface orientation, language acquisition …

Abstract Minimalist Grammars (Stabler, 1997) are a computationally oriented, and rigorous
formalization of many aspects of Chomsky's (1995) Minimalist Program. This paper presents …

This chapter compares work done in Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar with work
done under the heading Minimalist Program. We discuss differences in the respective …

HPSG was developed to express insights from theoretical linguistics in a precise formalism
that was computationally tractable. It drew ideas from a wide variety of traditions in …

In this paper we show how word class based language modeling can support the integration
of a small language in modern applications of speech technology. The methods described in …

In this paper we give instructions on how to write a minimalist grammar (MG). In order to
present the instructions as an algorithm, we use a variant of context free grammars (CFG) as …

Sentences of a language abide by rules called syntactic constraints which govern the form
those sentences may take. Verifying that these constraints are satisfied requires …

This paper is about the analysis of Germanic languages in Generative Grammar. I take the
broad view on Generative Grammar that includes theories like LFG (Bresnan 1982, 2001 …
