---1 Sentence: Sentences, Clauses, and Imperatives
-
-abstract Sentence = Cat ** {
-
---2 Clauses
-
--- The $NP VP$ predication rule form a clause whose linearization
--- gives a table of all tense variants, positive and negative.
--- Clauses are converted to $S$ (with fixed tense) with the
--- $UseCl$ function below.
-
- fun
- PredVP : NP -> VP -> Cl ; -- John walks
-
--- Using an embedded sentence as a subject is treated separately.
--- This can be overgenerating. E.g. "whether you go" as subject
--- is only meaningful for some verb phrases.
-
- PredSCVP : SC -> VP -> Cl ; -- that she goes is good
-
---2 Clauses missing object noun phrases
-
--- This category is a variant of the 'slash category' $S/NP$ of
--- GPSG and categorial grammars, which in turn replaces
--- movement transformations in the formation of questions
--- and relative clauses. Except $SlashV2$, the construction
--- rules can be seen as special cases of function composition, in
--- the style of CCG.
--- *Note* the set is not complete and lacks e.g. verbs with more than 2 places.
-
- SlashVP : NP -> VPSlash -> ClSlash ; -- (whom) he sees
- AdvSlash : ClSlash -> Adv -> ClSlash ; -- (whom) he sees today
- SlashPrep : Cl -> Prep -> ClSlash ; -- (with whom) he walks
- SlashVS : NP -> VS -> SSlash -> ClSlash ; -- (whom) she says that he loves
-
---2 Imperatives
-
--- An imperative is straightforwardly formed from a verb phrase.
--- It has variation over positive and negative, singular and plural.
--- To fix these parameters, see [Phrase Phrase.html].
-
- ImpVP : VP -> Imp ; -- love yourselves
-
---2 Embedded sentences
-
--- Sentences, questions, and infinitival phrases can be used as
--- subjects and (adverbial) complements.
-
- EmbedS : S -> SC ; -- that she goes
- EmbedQS : QS -> SC ; -- who goes
- EmbedVP : VP -> SC ; -- to go
-
---2 Sentences
-
--- These are the 2 x 4 x 4 = 16 forms generated by different
--- combinations of tense, polarity, and
--- anteriority, which are defined in [``Common`` Common.html].
-
- fun
- UseCl : Tense -> Ant -> Pol -> Cl -> S ;
- UseQCl : Tense -> Ant -> Pol -> QCl -> QS ;
- UseRCl : Tense -> Ant -> Pol -> RCl -> RS ;
- UseSlash : Tense -> Ant -> Pol -> ClSlash -> SSlash ;
-
--- An adverb can be added to the beginning of a sentence.
-
- AdvS : Adv -> S -> S ; -- today, I will go home
-
--- A sentence can be modified by a relative clause referring to its contents.
-
- RelS : S -> RS -> S ; -- she sleeps, which is good
-

--- Examples for English $S$/$Cl$:
-{-
- Pres Simul Pos ODir : he sleeps
- Pres Simul Neg ODir : he doesn't sleep
- Pres Anter Pos ODir : he has slept
- Pres Anter Neg ODir : he hasn't slept
- Past Simul Pos ODir : he slept
- Past Simul Neg ODir : he didn't sleep
- Past Anter Pos ODir : he had slept
- Past Anter Neg ODir : he hadn't slept
- Fut Simul Pos ODir : he will sleep
- Fut Simul Neg ODir : he won't sleep
- Fut Anter Pos ODir : he will have slept
- Fut Anter Neg ODir : he won't have slept
- Cond Simul Pos ODir : he would sleep
- Cond Simul Neg ODir : he wouldn't sleep
- Cond Anter Pos ODir : he would have slept
- Cond Anter Neg ODir : he wouldn't have slept
