[03:16:00] *** Joins: drbean (~drbean@TC210-63-209-76.static.apol.com.tw) [07:21:29] How should I handle "You also don’t have to worry about what to wear" and "You usually don’t start dinner until ten."? [07:22:00] With the adverb coming before the auxiliary verb instead of the main verb, as with AdV. [07:22:33] I am attaching it to the NP in the front. [07:23:09] *** Joins: proteusguy (~proteus-g@119-46-178-3.static.asianet.co.th) [10:02:45] drbean: sounds reasonable enough, a bit like SelfNP here https://github.com/GrammaticalFramework/gf-rgl/blob/master/src/abstract/Idiom.gf#L31-L33 [10:02:58] or just any old AdvNP or AdvCN [10:04:32] the need to attach it to the NP seems pretty specific to english, or to any language whose lincat for VP distinguishes between main verb and auxiliary [10:05:05] I don't remember english so well (I rarely dig into internals of english), but in many other languages, there's just one finite verb and then various compl/obj/pred/adv/whatever fields [10:05:25] and if you form a sentence by e.g. ComplVV or something, the old V of the VP just becomes one of the complements [11:15:48] *** Quits: proteusguy (~proteus-g@119-46-178-3.static.asianet.co.th) (Remote host closed the connection) [14:57:29] *** Joins: esg (~emil@esg.xen.prgmr.com) [15:13:17] hi esg! did you get any further with your types? [15:15:44] hi inariksit! well, not really any good progress. [15:15:58] transfer is probably the way to go [15:16:35] it's just that it would be a bit more elegant to have it in GF itself. [16:24:31] do you want to be able to use it from an external application? [16:24:46] out of curiosity, what was it that didn't work with def?
