In some language pairs, shallow syntax tags are used to improve disambiguation, or allow tighter rules to be written. For example, disambiguating verb phrase co-ordinators from noun phrase co-ordinators lets you write rules to merge two co-ordinated NPs.

Example

$ echo "Gud talaði øll hesi orð og segði Hann:" | lt-proc fo-is.automorf.bin | cg-proc fo-is.rlx.bin 
^Gud/Gud<np><al><m><sg><acc><@OBJ→>/Gud<np><al><m><sg><nom><@SUBJ→>$ 
^talaði/tala<vblex><past><p2><sg><@+FMAINV>/tala<vblex><past><p3><sg><@+FMAINV>$ 
^øll/allur<prn><qnt><nt><pl><acc><@←OBJ>$ 
^hesi/hesin<prn><dem><nt><pl><acc><@←OBJ>$ 
^orð/orð<n><nt><sg><acc><ind><@←OBJ>/orð<n><nt><pl><acc><ind><@←OBJ>$ 
^og/og<cnjcoo><@CNP>/og<cnjsub><@CVP>$ 
^segði/siga<vblex><past><p3><sg><@+FMAINV>$ 
^Hann/Prnpers<prn><p3><m><sg><nom><@←SUBJ>$^:/:<sent>$

Here, we could for example have a rule that moves subjects of a finite main verb that are to the right, to the left. e.g. @+FMAINV @←SUBJ to @→SUBJ @+FMAINV as is the order in English.

Standard syntax tags

These are the uniform tags used in many Giellatekno projects.
