This book makes such tasks accessible for a wide +range of programmers. It introduces GF (Grammatical Framework), +which is a programming language designed for writing grammars, which +may moreover address several languages in parallel. +The book shows how to write grammars in GF and use them in applications +such as tourist phrasebooks, spoken dialogue systems, and natural +language interfaces. The examples and exercises address several +languages, and the readers are guided to look at their own languages +from the computational perspective. + +With an emphasis on good engineering, the book promotes modularity +and division of labour - in particular, the use of libraries. It +introduces the GF Resource Grammar Library, which currently addresses +16 languages. This number is constantly growing due to contributions +from the international GF community. The library makes it painless to +build applications and to port them to new languages. The book +introduces a wide range of such applications, which run on platforms +ranging from web servers to mobile phones. But the book also gives +guidance for those readers who want to understand the underlying +linguistics and implement resource grammars for new languages. + +The book starts with a hands-on tutorial, continues with a selection +of advanced topics, and ends with a complete reference manual +of GF. Requiring very little background knowledge, it is accessible +for second-year students that have experience with computers and an +interest for languages. At the same time, its novel and advanced +material makes it interesting for senior researchers in computer science, +linguistics, and related fields. + + +==How to cite== + +``` +@Book{ranta-2011, + author = {Aarne Ranta}, + title = {{Grammatical Framework: + Programming with Multilingual Grammars}}, + publisher = {{CSLI Publications}}, + year = {2011}, + address = "Stanford", + note = "ISBN-10: 1-57586-626-9 (Paper), 1-57586-627-7 (Cloth)" +} +``` + +==Table of Contents== + +[Detailed Table of Contents toc-gf-book.txt] + + +==Supporting material== + +[Slides ./gf-book-slides.pdf] for teaching the book chapter by chapter. + +[Code examples ./examples].
