Abstract

This paper reports on an ongoing research on temporal adverbs and deals with the problem of processing a family of Portuguese and Spanish compound temporal adverbs, in a contrastive approach, aiming at building finite state transducers to translate them from one language into the other. Because of the large number of combinations involved and their complexity, it is not easy to list them in full. However, their modularity and relative independence from the surrounding sentence make them especially apt for a formal description using a finite state approach.
