Well, a few days ago, Xalbo pointed out that experimental
bridi-head-less CU does alter the way previously valid sentences are
parsed, and thus break past usage.
[18:49:03] <@xalbo> gerna: lu broda .i cu se cusku mi
[18:49:03] <gerna> (0[{lu <(1broda VAU)1 i> LI'U} cu {<se cusku> <mi
VAU>}])0
[18:49:12] <@xalbo> cipra: lu broda .i cu se cusku mi
[18:49:14] <cipra> ([lu {<CU (�broda VAU�)> <i (�cu [se cusku] [mi
VAU]�)>} LIhU] VAU)
[18:49:25] <@xalbo> I knew I could come up with one if I tried hard
enough :)
I checked through the experimental features of Camxes-Exp and found two
more of them that may break past usage. I show below one example of
parsing alteration for each of them (STD stands for standard grammar,
and EXP for the experimental one):
# CU: { lu coi cu mo }
STD: (0[{lu <(1coi DO'U)1 (1)1> LI'U} cu {mo VAU}])0
EXP: ([lu {<coi DOhU> <cu (�mo VAU�)>} LIhU] VAU)
# VAU+JA: { broda me lu brodo vau je brodi }
STD: (0[{broda <(1me [lu {brodo vau} LI'U] ME'U)1 je brodi>} VAU])0
EXP: (CU [broda {me <lu (�CU [brodo vau] [je {brodi VAU} VAU]�) LIhU>
MEhU}] VAU)
# VAhO: { lu mi .e do vu'o noi broda .e ko'a }
STD: (0[{<lu (1[{mi e do} vu'o {noi <broda VAU> KU'O}] VAU)1 LI'U> e
ko'a} VAU])0
EXP: ([lu {<(�mi [e do]�) (�vu'o [noi {CU <broda VAU>} KUhO] [e ko'a]�)>
VAU} LIhU] VAU)
I guess that tag simplification can cause similar divergences, but it'd
be for silly reasons. .u'i
So, with regard to this, do you think termless CU is still a worthy
feature for Camxes-Exp, or should I remove it?
As for vu'o, I think the change is worthy, as the conditions for the
parse change to happen seem uncommon enough.
Any thought?
