Lexical information not enough to detect verbs in passive constructions #8

Closed kovvalsky closed 3 years ago

While in CCG banks and parsers the verb forms in passive constrictions and perfect tenses are distinguishable via :pss feature, that is not the case for Dutch trees obtained from Lassy. Bith :pss and :pt are marked as :pt (for `PPART``). https://www.let.rug.nl/vannoord/alp/Alpino/adt.html

This makes a tableau rule insufficient that uses pss to rearrange the argument list of a verb.
