There is a growing need of linguistic resources for these -languages, to help in tasks such as translation and information retrieval. -These resources should be <B>portable</B> and <B>freely accessible</B>. -Languages marked in red in the diagram are of particular interest for -the summer school, since they are those on which the effort will be concentrated. -</P> -<P> -GF (Grammatical Framework, -<A HREF="http://digitalgrammars.com/gf"><CODE>digitalgrammars.com/gf</CODE></A>) -is a <B>functional programming language</B> designed for writing natural -language grammars. It provides an efficient platform for this task, due to -its modern characteristics: -</P> -<UL> -<LI>It is a functional programming language, similar to Haskell and ML. -<LI>It has a static type system and type checker. -<LI>It has a powerful module system supporting separate compilation - and data abstraction. -<LI>It has an optimizing compiler to <B>Portable Grammar Format</B> (PGF). -<LI>PGF can be further compiled to other formats, such as JavaScript and - speech recognition language models. -<LI>GF has a <B>resource grammar library</B> giving access to the morphology and - basic syntax of 12 languages. -</UL> - -<P> -In addition to "ordinary" grammars for single languages, GF -supports <B>multilingual grammars</B>. A multilingual GF grammar consists of an -<B>abstract syntax</B> and a set of <B>concrete syntaxes</B>. -An abstract syntax is system of <B>trees</B>, serving as a semantic -model or an ontology. A concrete syntax is a mapping from abstract syntax -trees to strings of a particular language. -</P> -<P> -These mappings defined in concrete syntax are <B>reversible</B>: they -can be used both for <B>generating</B> strings from trees, and for -<B>parsing</B> strings into trees. Combinations of generation and -parsing can be used for <B>translation</B>, where the abstract -syntax works as an <B>interlingua</B>. Thus GF has been used as a -framework for building translation systems in several areas -of application and large sets of languages. -</P> -<A NAME="toc4"></A> -<H2>The GF resource grammar library</H2> -<P> -The GF resource grammar library is a set of grammars usable as libraries when -building translation systems and other applications. -The library currently covers -the 9 languages coloured in green in the diagram above; in addition, -Catalan, Norwegian, and Russian are covered, and there is ongoing work on -Arabic, Hindi/Urdu, Polish, Romanian, and Thai. -</P> -<P> -The purpose of the resource grammar library is to define the "low-level" structure -of a language: inflection, word order, agreement. This structure belongs to what -linguists call morphology and syntax. It can be very complex and requires -a lot of knowledge. Yet, when translating from one language to -another, knowing morphology and syntax is but a part of what is needed. -The translator (whether human -or machine) must understand the meaning of what is translated, and must also know -the idiomatic way to express the meaning in the target language. This knowledge -can be very domain-dependent and requires in general an expert in the field to -reach high quality: a mathematician in the field of mathematics, a meteorologist -in the field of weather reports, etc. -</P> -<P> -The problem is to find a person who is an expert in both the domain of translation -and in the low-level linguistic details. It is the rareness of this combination -that has made it difficult to build interlingua-based translation systems. -The GF resource grammar library has the mission of helping in this task. -It encapsulates the low-level linguistics in program modules -accessed through easy-to-use interfaces. -Experts on different domains can build translation systems by using the library, -without knowing low-level linguistics. The idea is much the same as when a -programmer builds a graphical user interface (GUI) from high-level elements such as -buttons and menus, without having to care about pixels or geometrical forms. -</P> -<A NAME="toc5"></A> -<H3>Missing EU languages, by the family</H3> -<P> -Writing a grammar for a language is usually easier if other languages -from the same family already have grammars.

The liberal license (LGPL) -makes it usable for anyone and for any task. GF also has tools supporting the -use of grammars in programs written in other -programming languages: C, C++, Haskell, -Java, JavaScript, and Prolog. In connection with the TALK project, -support has also been -developed for translating GF grammars to language models used in speech -recognition (GSL/Nuance, HTK/ATK, SRGS, JSGF). -</P> -<A NAME="toc7"></A> -<H3>The structure of the library</H3> -<P> -The library has the following main parts: -</P> -<UL> -<LI><B>Inflection paradigms</B>, covering the inflection of each language. -<LI><B>Core Syntax</B>, covering a large set of syntax rule that - can be implemented for all languages involved. -<LI><B>Common Test Lexicon</B>, giving ca. 500 common words that can be used for - testing the library. -<LI><B>Language-Specific Syntax Extensions</B>, covering syntax rules that are - not implementable for all languages. -<LI><B>Language-Specific Lexica</B>, word lists for each language, with - accurate morphological and syntactic information. -</UL> - -<P> -The goal of the summer school is to implement, for each language, at least -the first three components.
