General-purpose reasoning based on knowledge encoded in natural language, requires mapping this knowledge out of its syntax-dependent form into a more general representation that can be more flexibly applied and manipulated. We have created a system that accomplishes this in a variety of cases via mapping English syntactic expressions into predicate and term logic expressions, which can then be...

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE This Medical Policy provides assistance in interpreting UnitedHealthcare benefit plans. When deciding coverage, the enrollee specific document must be referenced. The terms of an enrollee's document (e.g., Certificate of Coverage (COC) or Summary Plan Description (SPD)) may differ greatly.

This paper provides a contrastive account of agent demotion in German and Polish. While is relatively broad term that often used including mere backgrounding, the focus on lexical morphosyntactic means allow for agents to be omitted entirely, such as different forms passive voice, reflexive constructions, generic pronouns or unaccusative verbs with impersonal subjects (among others).

The part between quotation marks is called the quote, the rest is the reporting clause. From (1) it is clear that quotes can be sentence-initial, discontinuous, or sentence-final. One of my conclusions will be that the quote-final construction (1c) is fundamentally different from the other two. Quotative constructions are not restricted to high-frequent reporting verbs such as zeggen ‘say’ and ...

There have been heated debates on whether tense markers in Korean are inflectional affixes or syntactic words. One of the strongest pieces of evidence for the latter position comes from tense-related phenomena in -ko constructions. These constructions are usually assumed to consist of two coordinate clauses. In this paper, we will see that the tense phenomena can be accounted for naturally by c...

The German standard language and some of its dialects distinguish two types of directional adverbs, depending on the perspective taken in the speech event. For example, both SHG hinauf vs. herauf mean up. However, the two adverbs differ in that a motion verb modified by SHG hinauf will be construed not only as being UP(WARDS) but also as being AWAYFROM-(the)-ORIGO (we use the term origo to refe...
