Logic1 GLARF relations are generated from treebank and parses for English, Chinese and Japanese. We focus on evaluation of system output for both input types, often allowing for multiple correct answers.

We present and discuss a simple semantic approach to force step-indexed logical relations to be transitive.

We investigatea simple form of parametricity, based on adding \abstract" copies of pre-existing types. Connections are made with the Reynolds-Ma theory of parametricity by logical relations, with the theory of parametricity via dinaturality, and with the categorical notion of equivalence.
