+
+--3 Common noun phrases
+

+--2 Adjectives
+--3 Simple adjectives

+
+ Adjective : Type = {s : AdjFormPos => Case => Str} ;

+ case gn of {ASg _ => Sg ; APl => Pl} ;
+
+--3 Adjective phrases

+-- An adjective phrase may contain a complement, e.g. "yngre än Rolf".

+
+ IsPostfixAdj = Bool ;
+
+ AdjPhrase : Type = Adjective ** {p : IsPostfixAdj} ;
+
+-- Simple adjectives are not postfix:
+
+ adj2adjPhrase : Adjective -> AdjPhrase = \ny -> ny ** {p = False} ;
+
+--3 Comparison adjectives
+
+-- We take comparison adjectives directly from
+-- the lexicon, which has full adjectives:
+
+ AdjDegr = Adj ;
+
+-- Each of the comparison forms has a characteristic use:
+--
+-- Positive forms are used alone, as adjectival phrases ("ung").
+
+ positAdjPhrase : AdjDegr -> AdjPhrase = \ung ->
+ {s = table {a => \\c => ung.s ! AF (Posit a) c} ;
+ p = False
+ } ;
+
+-- Comparative forms are used with an object of comparison, as
+-- adjectival phrases ("yngre än Rolf").
+
+ comparAdjPhrase : AdjDegr -> NounPhrase -> AdjPhrase = \yngre,rolf ->
+ {s = \\_, c => yngre.s ! AF Compar Nom ++ "än" ++ rolf.s ! mkNPForm c ;
+ p = True
+ } ;
+
+-- Superlative forms are used with a modified noun, picking out the
+-- maximal representative of a domain ("den yngste mannen").
+
+ superlNounPhrase : AdjDegr -> CommNounPhrase -> NounPhrase = \yngst,man ->
+ {s = \\c => let {gn = gNum man.g Sg} in
+ artDef ! True ! gn ++
+ yngst.s ! AF (Super SupWeak) Nom ++
+ man.s ! Sg ! DefP Def ! npCase c ;
+ g = man.g ;
+ n = Sg
+ } ;
+
+-- Moreover, superlatives can be used alone as adjectival phrases
+-- ("yngst", "den yngste" - in free variation).
+-- N.B. the former is only permitted in predicative position.
+
+ superlAdjPhrase : AdjDegr -> AdjPhrase = \ung ->
+ {s = \\a,c => variants {
+ --- artDef ! True ! gn ++ yngst.s ! AF (Super SupWeak) c
+ ung.s ! AF (Super SupStrong) c
+ } ;
+ p = False
+ } ;
+
+--3 Two-place adjectives
+--
+-- A two-place adjective is an adjective with a preposition used before
+-- the complement. (Rem. $Preposition = Str$).
+
+ AdjCompl = Adjective ** {s2 : Preposition} ;
+
+ complAdj : AdjCompl -> NounPhrase -> AdjPhrase = \förtjust,dig ->
+ {s = \\a,c => förtjust.s ! a ! c ++ förtjust.s2 ++ dig.s ! PAcc ;
+ p = True
+ } ;
+
+
+--3 Modification of common nouns
+--
+-- The two main functions of adjective are in predication ("Johan är ung")
+-- and in modification ("en ung man"). Predication will be defined
+-- later, in the chapter on verbs.
+
+ modCommNounPhrase : AdjPhrase -> CommNounPhrase -> CommNounPhrase = \God,Nybil ->
+ {s = \\n, b, c =>
+ let {
+ god = God.s ! mkAdjForm (unSpeciesAdjP b) n Nybil.g Nybil.x ! Nom ;
+ nybil = Nybil.s ! n ! b ! c
+ } in
+ preOrPost God.p nybil god ;
+ g = Nybil.g ;
+ x = Nybil.x ;
+ p = True} ;
+
+-- A special case is modification of a noun that has not yet been modified.
+-- But it is simply a special case.
+
+ modCommNoun : Adjective -> CommNoun -> CommNounPhrase = \god,bil ->
+ modCommNounPhrase (adj2adjPhrase god) (n2n bil) ;
+
+-- We have used a straightforward
+-- method building adjective forms from simple parameters.
+
+ mkAdjForm : Species -> Number -> Gender -> Sex -> AdjFormPos = \b,n,g,x ->
+ case <b,n> of {
+ <Indef,Sg> => Strong (ASg g) ;
+ <Indef,Pl> => Strong APl ;
+ <Def, Sg> => Weak (AxSg x) ; ---- add masc!
+ <Def, Pl> => Weak AxPl
+ } ;
+
+
+--2 Function expressions
+
+-- A function expression is a common noun together with the
+-- preposition prefixed to its argument ("mor till x").
+-- The type is analogous to two-place adjectives and transitive verbs.
+
+ Function = CommNoun ** {s2 : Preposition} ;
+
+ mkFun : CommNoun -> Preposition -> Function = \f,p ->
+ f ** {s2 = p} ;
+
+-- The application of a function gives, in the first place, a common noun:
+-- "mor/mödrar till Johan". From this, other rules of the resource grammar
+-- give noun phrases, such as "modern till Johan", "mödrarna till Johan",
+-- "mödrarna till Johan och Maria", and "modern till Johan och Maria" (the
+-- latter two corresponding to distributive and collective functions,
+-- respectively). Semantics will eventually tell when each
+-- of the readings is meaningful.
+
+ appFunComm : Function -> NounPhrase -> CommNounPhrase = \värde,x ->
+ noun2CommNounPhrase
+ {s = \\n,b => table {
+ Gen => nonExist ;
+ _ => värde.s ! n ! b ! Nom ++ värde.s2 ++ x.s ! PAcc
+ } ;
+ g = värde.g ;
+ x = värde.x
+ } ;
+
+-- It is possible to use a function word as a common noun; the semantics is
+-- often existential or indexical.
+
+ funAsCommNounPhrase : Function -> CommNounPhrase =
+ noun2CommNounPhrase ;
+
+-- The following is an aggregate corresponding to the original function application
+-- producing "Johans mor" and "modern till Johan". It does not appear in the
+-- resource grammar API any longer.
+
+ appFun : Bool -> Function -> NounPhrase -> NounPhrase = \coll,värde,x ->
+ let {n = x.n ; nf = if_then_else Number coll Sg n} in
+ variants {
+ defNounPhrase nf (appFunComm värde x) ;
+ npGenDet nf x (noun2CommNounPhrase värde)
+ } ;
+
+
+
+--2 Verbs
+
+-- Although the Swedish lexicon has full verb inflection,
+-- we have limited this first version of the resource syntax to
+-- verbs in present tense. Their mode can be infinitive, imperative, and indicative.
+
+
+--3 Verb phrases
+--
+-- Verb phrases are discontinuous: the parts of a verb phrase are
+-- (s) an inflected verb, (s2) verb adverbials (such as negation), and
+-- (s3) complement. This discontinuity is needed in sentence formation
+-- to account for word order variations.
+
+ VerbPhrase : Type = Verb ** {s2 : Str ; s3 : Gender => Number => Str} ;
+
+-- A simple verb can be made into a verb phrase with an empty complement.
+-- There are two versions, depending on if we want to negate the verb.
+-- N.B. negation is *not* a function applicable to a verb phrase, since
+-- double negations with "inte" are not grammatical.
+
+ predVerb : Bool -> Verb -> VerbPhrase = \b,se ->
+ se ** {
+ s2 = negation b ;
+ s3 = \\_,_ => []
+ } ;
+
+ negation : Bool -> Str = \b -> if_then_else Str b [] "inte" ;
+
+-- Sometimes we want to extract the verb part of a verb phrase.
+
+ verbOfPhrase : VerbPhrase -> Verb = \v -> {s = v.s} ;
+
+-- Verb phrases can also be formed from adjectives ("är snäll"),
+-- common nouns ("är en man"), and noun phrases ("är den yngste mannen").
+-- The third rule is overgenerating: "är varje man" has to be ruled out
+-- on semantic grounds.
+
+ predAdjective : Bool -> Adjective -> VerbPhrase = \b,arg ->
+ verbVara ** {
+ s2 = negation b ;
+ s3 = \\g,n => arg.s ! mkAdjForm Indef n g NoMasc ! Nom
+ } ;
+
+ predCommNoun : Bool -> CommNounPhrase -> VerbPhrase = \b,man ->
+ verbVara ** {
+ s2 = negation b ;
+ s3 = \\_,n => indefNoun n man
+ } ;
+
+ predNounPhrase : Bool -> NounPhrase -> VerbPhrase = \b,john ->
+ verbVara ** {
+ s2 = negation b ;
+ s3 = \\_,_ => john.s ! PNom
+ } ;
+
+--3 Transitive verbs
+--
+-- Transitive verbs are verbs with a preposition for the complement,
+-- in analogy with two-place adjectives and functions.
+-- One might prefer to use the term "2-place verb", since
+-- "transitive" traditionally means that the inherent preposition is empty.
+-- Such a verb is one with a *direct object*.
+
+ TransVerb : Type = Verb ** {s2 : Preposition} ;
+
+ mkTransVerb : Verb -> Preposition -> TransVerb = \v,p ->
+ v ** {s2 = p} ;
+
+ mkDirectVerb : Verb -> TransVerb = \v ->
+ mkTransVerb v nullPrep ;
+
+ nullPrep : Preposition = [] ;
+
+ extTransVerb : Verbum -> Preposition -> TransVerb =
+ \v -> mkTransVerb (extVerb Act v) ;
+
+-- The rule for using transitive verbs is the complementization rule:
+
+ complTransVerb : Bool -> TransVerb -> NounPhrase -> VerbPhrase = \b,se,dig ->
+ {s = se.s ; s2 = negation b ; s3 = \\_,_ => se.s2 ++ dig.s ! PAcc} ;
+
+--2 Adverbials
+--
+-- Adverbials that modify verb phrases are either post- or pre-verbal.
+-- As a rule of thumb, simple adverbials ("bra","alltid") are pre-verbal,
+-- but this is not always the case ("här" is post-verbal).
+
+ Adverb : Type = SS ** {isPost : Bool} ;
+
+ advPre : Str -> Adverb = \alltid -> ss alltid ** {isPost = False} ;
+ advPost : Str -> Adverb = \bra -> ss bra ** {isPost = True} ;
+
+ adVerbPhrase : VerbPhrase -> Adverb -> VerbPhrase = \spelar, bra ->
+ let {postp = bra.isPost} in
+ {
+ --- this unfortunately generates VP#2 ::= VP#2
+ s = spelar.s ;
+ s2 = (if_then_else Str postp [] bra.s) ++ spelar.s2 ;
+ s3 = \\g,n => spelar.s3 ! g ! n ++ (if_then_else Str postp bra.s [])
+ } ;
+
+-- Adverbials are typically generated by prefixing prepositions.
+-- The rule for creating locative noun phrases by the preposition "i"
+-- is a little shaky: "i Sverige" but "på Island".
+
+ prepPhrase : Preposition -> NounPhrase -> Adverb = \i,huset ->
+ advPost (i ++ huset.s ! PAcc) ;
+
+ locativeNounPhrase : NounPhrase -> Adverb =
+ prepPhrase "i" ;
+
+-- This is a source of the "mannen med teleskopen" ambiguity, and may produce
+-- strange things, like "bilar alltid" (while "bilar idag" is OK).
+-- Semantics will have to make finer distinctions among adverbials.
+
+ advCommNounPhrase : CommNounPhrase -> Adverb -> CommNounPhrase = \bil,idag ->
+ {s = \\n, b, c => bil.s ! n ! b ! c ++ idag.s ;
+ g = bil.g ;
+ x = bil.x ;
+ p = bil.p} ;
+
+
+--2 Sentences
+--
+-- Sentences depend on a *word order parameter* selecting between main clause,
+-- inverted, and subordinate clause.
+
+param
+ Order = Main | Inv | Sub ;
+
+oper
+ Sentence : Type = SS1 Order ;
+
+-- This is the traditional $S -> NP VP$ rule. It takes care of both
+-- word order and agreement.
+
+ predVerbPhrase : NounPhrase -> VerbPhrase -> Sentence =
+ \Jag, serdiginte ->
+ let {
+ jag = Jag.s ! PNom ;
+ ser = serdiginte.s ! Indicat ;
+ dig = serdiginte.s3 ! Jag.g ! Jag.n ;
+ inte = serdiginte.s2
+ } in
+ {s = table {
+ Main => jag ++ ser ++ inte ++ dig ;
+ Inv => ser ++ jag ++ inte ++ dig ;
+ Sub => jag ++ inte ++ ser ++ dig
+ }
+ } ;
+
+-- This is a macro for simultaneous predication and complementation.
+
+ predTransVerb : Bool -> NounPhrase -> TransVerb -> NounPhrase -> Sentence =
+ \b,jag,ser,dig -> predVerbPhrase jag (complTransVerb b ser dig) ;
+
+--3 Sentence-complement verbs
+--
+-- Sentence-complement verbs take sentences as complements.
+
+ SentenceVerb : Type = Verb ;
+
+ complSentVerb : Bool -> SentenceVerb -> Sentence -> VerbPhrase = \b,se,duler ->
+ {s = se.s ; s2 = negation b ; s3 = \\_,_ => optStr "att" ++ duler.s ! Main} ;
+
+
+
+--2 Sentences missing noun phrases
+--
+-- This is one instance of Gazdar's *slash categories*, corresponding to his
+-- $S/NP$.
+-- We cannot have - nor would we want to have - a productive slash-category former.
+-- Perhaps a handful more will be needed.
+--
+-- Notice that the slash category has the same relation to sentences as
+-- transitive verbs have to verbs: it's like a *sentence taking a complement*.
+
+ SentenceSlashNounPhrase : Type = Sentence ** {s2 : Preposition} ;
+
+ slashTransVerb : Bool -> NounPhrase -> TransVerb -> SentenceSlashNounPhrase =
+ \b, Jag, se ->
+ let {
+ jag = Jag.s ! PNom ;
+ ser = se.s ! Indicat ;
+ inte = negation b
+ } in
+ {s = table {
+ Main => jag ++ ser ++ inte ;
+ Inv => ser ++ jag ++ inte ;
+ Sub => jag ++ inte ++ ser
+ } ;
+ s2 = se.s2
+ } ;
+
+
+--2 Relative pronouns and relative clauses
+--
+-- Relative pronouns can be nominative, accusative, or genitive, and
+-- they depend on gender and number just like adjectives.
+-- Moreover they may or may not carry their own genders: for instance,
+-- "som" just transmits the gender of a noun ("tal som är primt"), whereas
+-- "vars efterföljare" is $Utrum$ independently of the noun
+-- ("tal vars efterföljare är prim").
+-- This variation is expressed by the $RelGender$ type.
+
+ RelPron : Type = {s : RelCase => GenNum => Str ; g : RelGender} ;
+
+param
+ RelGender = RNoGen | RG Gender ;
+
+-- The following functions are selectors for relative-specific parameters.
+
+oper
+ -- this will be needed in "tal som är jämnt" / "tal vars efterföljare är jämn"
+ mkGenderRel : RelGender -> Gender -> Gender = \rg,g -> case rg of {
+ RG gen => gen ;
+ _ => g
+ } ;
+
+ relCase : RelCase -> Case = \c -> case c of {
+ RGen => Gen ;
+ _ => Nom
+ } ;
+
+-- The simplest relative pronoun has no gender of its own. As accusative variant,
+-- it has the omission of the pronoun ("mannen (som) jag ser").

+ RNom => \\_ => "som" ;
+ RAcc => \\_ => variants {"som" ; []} ;
+ RGen => \\_ => "vars" ;
+ RPrep => pronVilken
+ } ;
+ g = RNoGen
+ } ;
+
+-- Composite relative pronouns have the same variation as function
+-- applications ("efterföljaren till vilket" - "vars efterföljare").

+ } ;
+ g = RG värde.g
+ } ;
+
+-- Relative clauses can be formed from both verb phrases ("som sover") and
+-- slash expressions ("som jag ser"). The latter has moreover the variation
+-- as for the place of the preposition ("som jag talar om" - "om vilken jag talar").
+
+ RelClause : Type = {s : GenNum => Str} ;
+
+ relVerbPhrase : RelPron -> VerbPhrase -> RelClause = \som,sover ->
+ {s = \\gn =>
+ som.s ! RNom ! gn ++ sover.s2 ++ sover.s ! Indicat ++

+ som.s ! RAcc ! gn ++ jagtalar ++ om ;
+ om ++ som.s ! RPrep ! gn ++ jagtalar
+ }
+ } ;
+
+-- A 'degenerate' relative clause is the one often used in mathematics, e.g.
+-- "tal x sådant att x är primt".
+
+ relSuch : Sentence -> RelClause = \A ->
+ {s = \\g => pronSådan ! g ++ "att" ++ A.s ! Sub} ;
+
+-- The main use of relative clauses is to modify common nouns.
+-- The result is a common noun, out of which noun phrases can be formed

+-- N.B. we have not included rules for texts, which we find we cannot say much

+--
+--3 Conjunctions
+--
+-- Coordinated phrases are built by using conjunctions, which are either
+-- simple ("och", "eller") or distributed ("både - och", "antingen - eller").
+--
+-- The conjunction has an inherent number, which is used when conjoining
+-- noun phrases: "John och Mary är rika" vs. "John eller Mary är rik"; in the
+-- case of "eller", the result is however plural if any of the disjuncts is.

+--3 Coordinating sentences

+
+-- To coordinate a list of sentences by a distributed conjunction, we place
+-- the first part (e.g. "antingen") in front of the first element, the second
+-- part ("eller") between the last two elements, and commas in the other slots.
+-- For sentences this is really not used.

+ conjunctDistrSentence : ConjunctionDistr -> ListSentence -> Sentence =
+ CO.conjunctDistrTable Order ;

+--3 Coordinating noun phrases
+--
+-- The structure is the same as for sentences. The result is either always plural
+-- or plural if any of the components is, depending on the conjunction.
+-- The gender is neuter if any of the components is.
+
+ ListNounPhrase : Type = {s1,s2 : NPForm => Str ; g : Gender ; n : Number} ;

+
+--2 Subjunction
+--
+-- Subjunctions ("om", "när", etc)
+-- are a different way to combine sentences than conjunctions.
+-- The main clause can be a sentences, an imperatives, or a question,
+-- but the subjoined clause must be a sentence.
+--
+-- There are uniformly two variant word orders, e.g. "om du sover kommer björnen"
+-- and "björnen kommer om du sover".

+ Subjunction = SS ;
