    <abstract>In this paper we suggest that a key feature to look for in a successful parser is its ability to lend itself naturally to semantic interpretation. We therefore argue in favour of a parser based on a semantically oriented model of grammar, demonstrating some of the benefits that such a model offers to the parsing process. In particular we adopt a systemic functional syntax as the basis for implementing a chart based probabilistic incremental parser for a non-trivial subset of English.</abstract>
