4.2 The Syntax Rules

In this section we turn to the core DCG rules that we are going to use in our semantics construction system.

But we first have to deal with syntax. So we now turn to the core DCG rules that we are going to use. Let's look at our diagram: We're in the blue part in the upper half of the left (blue) side. So what we're talking about now will remain fixed throughout the rest of the course. This basically means that for what's to come later, we will consider the problem of syntax as solved.

We will first discuss what syntax rules we would like to use. We will immediately see why we can't - and then solve the problem.
