Abstract

In this paper we propose a modelization of the construction of Persian noun and adjectival phrases in a phrase structure grammar. This modelization uses the Interaction Grammar (IG) formalism by taking advantage of the polarities on features and tree descriptions for the various constructions that we studied. The proposed grammar was implemented with a Metagrammar compiler named XMG. A small test suite was built and tested with a parser based on IG, called LEOPAR. The experimental results show that we could parse the phrases successfully, even the most complex ones which have various constructions in them.
