Gramble: A Tabular Programming Language for Collaborative Linguistic Modeling
Patrick Littell, Darlene Stewart, Fineen Davis, Aidan Pine, Roland Kuhn
Abstract
We introduce Gramble, a domain-specific programming language for linguistic parsing and generation, in the tradition of XFST, TWOLC, and Kleene. Gramble features an intuitive tabular syntax and supports live group programming, allowing community experts to participate more directly in system development without having to be programmers themselves. A cross-platform interpreter is available for Windows, MacOS, and UNIX, supports collaborative programming on the web via Google Sheets, and is released open-source under the MIT license.- Anthology ID:
