################## Lexicon/Categories ####################
#
## same example lexical families for English
## these examples show use of features and semantics
#
## family IntransV(V) {
##  entry: s<1> [E] \ np<2> [X nom] : E:action(* <Actor>X:animate-being);
## }
##

family Bi(V) {
 entry: s<1>/pp<2>;
}

family P { entry: pp<2>/np<2>; }

family Pro {entry: np<2>[unemph];}

family ProEmph { entry: np<2>[emph]; }

family N { entry: np<2>[common]; }

family Name { entry: np<2>[proper]; }

family Cop(V) {
 entry: (s<1>/np<2>[emph])/np<2>[proper];
 entry: (s<1>/np<2>[unemph 3rd masc sg])/np<2>[exis+];
}

family NP { entry: np<2>/np<2>; }

family PP { entry: pp<2>; }

family Rel { entry: (np\np)/s; }


####################### Testbed #########################
#
## use just one testbed per grammar
## here's a sample testbed -- the number after the sentence
## is the expected number of parses
#
testbed {
 is mise Calum:1;
 is mise tidsear:0;
 s e tidsear a th annam:1;
 s e Calum a th annam:0;
}
