A Simple Surface Realization Engine for Telugu

Telugu is a Dravidian language with nearly 85 million first language speakers. In this paper we report a realization engine for Telugu that automates the task of building grammatically well-formed Telugu sentences from an input specification consisting of lexicalized grammatical constituents and associated features. Our realization engine adapts the design approach of SimpleNLG family of surface realizers.
