Some properties of the system: - It parses unrestricted tex - It provides morphological and surface-syntactic analyses - It is fast and accurate - There are both character-based and graphical output formats, though the latter is not available in the WWW yet. The grammar - is verb-centered dependency grammar - has explicit head-modifier relations with some 30 functional labels Regards, Pasi Tapanainen / Timo Jurvinen / Atro Voutilainen Research Unit for Multilingual Language Technology Department of General Linguistics P.O.
