GF parallel resource grammars and Russian
Paper in proceedings, 2006
A resource grammar is a standard library
for the GF grammar formalism. It raises
the abstraction level of writing domainspecific
grammars by taking care of the
general grammatical rules of a language.
GF resource grammars have been built in
parallel for eleven languages and share a
common interface, which simplifies multilingual
applications. We reflect on our experience
with the Russian resource grammar
trying to answer the questions: how
well Russian fits into the common interface
and where the line between languageindependent
and language-specific should
be drawn.
