A Formal Grammar for the Description of Sentence Structure in Modern Standard Arabic

One way to describe the structure of the sentence in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) is to draft a hypothesis and to test it on authentic data in an automatic processing environment. The result will be a verified theory about sentence structure in MSA as well as a collection of analysed data ready for teaching and research purposes. An operational version of the below discussed Toulouse MSA Sentence Grammar with a rather limited lexicon will be available at Workshop Time.
