Grammatical Framework Information
Grammatical Framework (GF) is a programming language for writing grammars of natural languages. GF is capable of parsing and generating texts in several languages simultaneously while working from a language-independent representation of meaning. Grammars written in GF can be compiled into different formats including JavaScript and Java and can be reused as software components. A companion to GF is the GF Resource Grammar Library, a reusable library for dealing with the morphology and syntax of a growing number of natural languages.
Both GF itself and the GF Resource Grammar Library are open-source. Typologically, GF is a functional programming language. Formally, it is a type-theoretic formalism based on the Martin-Löf type theory.
