Hybrid phrases: the Danish sidder og phrase

چکیده
In Danish aspectual differences are expressed by certain verbal constructions. Such aspectual constructions have not received much attention in the Danish literature, but cf. Diderichsen (1946, p. 156), Hansen (1967, vol. 3, pp. 30–31), Jensen (1985, p. 113), Brandt (1992) and Jørgensen (2001). (1) is an example of such an aspectual construction which is used to express imperfective aspect, and which we will henceforth refer to as the sidder og construction.

متن کاملDefinite Noun Phrases in Statistical Machine Translation into Danish
There are two ways to express definiteness in Danish, which makes it problematic for statistical machine translation (SMT) from English, since the wrong realisation can be chosen. We present a part-of-speechbased method for identifying and transforming English definite NPs that would likely be expressed in a different way in Danish. The transformed English is used for training a phrase-based SM...
