Transfer strategy

So far I've been thinking this:

• t1x: chunking
  • Turn adjectives and nouns into SN chunks, give them the right gender and number
  • Derivations into phrases?
• t2x: movement
  • Put adpositions in front of SN chunks
  • In general move SN chunks around verbs, adverbs etc. to get right word order
  • Guess definiteness from word order, case, syntactic function
• t3x: cleanup
  • Eg. if definiteness changed, make sure adj tags are consistent

We could also do:

• t1x: light chunking (SN, ...)
• t2x: more chunking (Relatives, subordinate clauses)
• t3x: moving around and stuff
• t4x: cleanup.

The 1-4 are different files, is that it? There are both easy and hard issues when it comes to phrases, this speaks in favour of 4. But the clear-cut criterion for light vs. heavy?Trondtr 12:26, 19 January 2010 (UTC).
