Title
Lexicalized Grammar and the Description of Motion Events
Abstract
In natural language generation, the use of a lexicalized grammar formalism and incremental syntactic and semantic processing places strong and specific constraints on the form and mean- ing of grammatical entries. These principles restrict which grammatical representations are possible and suggest examples an analyst can consult to decide among possibilities. We dis- cuss and justify a number of such constraints, and describe how they inform the design of lexi- cal entries for motion verbs. Our entries allow a generator to match the lexical choices found in a target corpus of action descriptions by assessing how the interpretation of a verb in context contributes towards the hearer's identification of the intended action.
