Zymla, Mark-Matthias: Aspectual Reasoning in LFG -- A Computational Approach to Grammatical and Lexical Aspect
This paper provides a semantic analysis of grammatical aspect built on the foundation of Lexical Functional Grammar. Due to this dependency this paper will also pay attention to the morphosyntactic analysis of aspect in LFG. The main focus lies on the treatment of aspect in the computational LFG grammars produced within the Xerox Linguistic Environment. The results of this endeavour are two-fold: firstly, an evaluation of the capabilities of the English XLE grammar with respect to aspect as a grammatical feature. Secondly, a semantic theory of grammatical aspect that is couched within the broader ParTMA effort with the goal of providing a cross-linguistically viable annotation and representation of tense and aspect.
