Feature Exercises

Due: November 16th


1. Fix the subcat4.pl parser so that it correctly parses the sentence “it has the egg”.


2. Add the ability to detect subcategorization violations for verbs that take that clause complements:

      I see that the block is in the bowl.

      you found that I saw a red bowl.


3. The program feature5.pl currently accepts sentences like "the I moved". Fix feature5 so that it labels any combination of det+pronoun as 'NP PARSE FAILS AGREEMENT CHECK!'
