Volume 1
Chapter 1: Introduction
Short summary
Example solutions to free excercises from Chapter 1
You can send your own solution to the free exercise to us as a pdf file! If you agree, we may adapt it and put it on the wiki as another possible solution. We will, of course, indicate your authorship.
- Exercise 1.2.3: Chapter 1, excercise: Ambiguity
- Exercise 1.2.5: Chapter 1, excercise: Negation in other languages
Material
- Additional wiki pages on basic semantic notions
- Additional exercises
- Additional reading
- Wiki page on syllogisms
Chapter 2: Predicate logic
Short summary
A relatively standard definition of first order predicate logic is introduced. The chapter can be skipped by readers with prior knowledge in logic.
Material
- Additional wiki pages
- Wiki page on predicate logic (including definitons, podcasts etc.)
- Additional exercises
- Additional reading
Chapter 3: Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar
Short summary
The syntax of a fragment of English is defined. The fragment contains canonical structure, but also the definition for unbounded dependencies.
While the fragment is relatively standard, even readers with an HPSG background should consult it to see the details of our particular version of HPSG. This is necessary because the syntax-semantics interface, introduced from Chapter 5 on, will rely on this fragment.
