Concordance macros for Spanish #51

Open ftyers opened 4 years ago

ftyers commented 4 years ago

The old transfer had a set of concordance macros to deal with determining gender and number in cases like,

adj.m.sg n.m.sg     el coche nuevo
adj.m.sg n.m.sp     el saltamontes nuevo 
adj.m.sg n.mf.sg    el criminal nuevo
adj.m.sg n.mf.sp    el trotamundos nuevo
adj.m.pl n.m.pl     los coches nuevos
adj.m.pl n.m.sp     los saltamontes nuevos

adj.mf.sp n.f.sp    _ tesis salvavidas
adj.mf.sp n.mf.sg   _ criminal salvavidas
adj.mf.sp n.mf.pl   _ criminales salvavidas
adj.mf.sp n.mf.sp   _ trotamundos salvavidas

It would be great to have similar macros for this transfer. They are called f_concord1, f_concord2 etc. In principle we should only need 1 and 2 here.

It would also be great if this could interface with -anaphora too, e.g. if you have a sentence like, "Anna and Felicity are the most lifesaving globetrotters." you could get "Anna y Felicity son las trotamundos las más salvavidas".

By interface do you mean something more involved than running rtx-proc -a and using <clip side="ref"/> ?

No, I mean exactly that :)
