Abstract:
In this paper we continue to publish the results of our work with eALIS, a new “post-Montagovian” discourse semantic theory, demonstrating its functioning on a few classical semantic problems. We retain mathematical exactness while simultaneously applying cognitive paradigm. Previously we wrote study programs, for testing purposes, now we are building a (lexical) Prolog fact database. Although we are implementing the grammatical analysis, too, it is important to note here that the whole process of grammatical (phonological, morphological and syntactic) analysis is practically included in only one () of the four basic functions while the other three describe various parts of semantics.
