Grammatical Framework is a programming language designed for writing
grammars, which has the capability of addressing several languages
in parallel. This thorough introduction demonstrates how to write
grammars in Grammatical Framework and use them in applications such
as tourist phrasebooks, spoken dialogue systems, and natural
language interfaces. The examples and exercises presented here
address several languages, and the readers are shown how to look at
their own languages from the computational perspective.
