Basic Idea Typed feature structure HPSG: First glance Feature structures in HPSG ◮ HPSG is nonderivational, but in some sense, HPSG has several different levels (layers of features) ◮ Each of these feature values is itself a complex object. Signs in HPSG Sign is the basic sort/type in HPSG used to describe lexical items (of type word) and phrases (of type phrase). ◮ The type sign has the features PHON and SYNSEM. ◮ The feature SYNSEM has a value of type synsem ◮ This type itself has relevant features (LOCAL and NONLOCAL) ◮ ... sign ⎡ phon ⎢ ⎣synsem ⎤ list(phone-string) [ ] local local ⎥ ⎦ nonlocal nonlocal synsem Weiwei Sun Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar I 54/61
