| Course contents : | We take a critical look at the various problems involved in dealing with the lexicon in a formal analysis - to the extent the latter is indeed feasible - of contemporary English. The standard lexical resources such as dictionaries and thesauri are examined and assessed with respect to their relevance for the various tasks involved in the parsing of natural language. |
