This is a (currently very incomplete!) parser for the Na'vi language.
It uses Reykunyu's API (at https://reykunyu.wimiso.nl) to parse individual words in the input sentence, and then uses a nearley grammar to parse these tokens into a parse tree.
- Install nearley:
sudo npm install -g nearley - Compile the grammar:
nearleyc navi.ne -o navi.js - Parse a sentence:
node runParser.js "<sentence to parse>"(or use it programmatically:tslamyu.doParse(...))
Only a very limited set of grammar features are supported at the moment:
- nouns
- including conjugated nouns with fì-/tsa-, -fkeyk and similar affixes
- subclauses attached to nouns by a
- genitive attached to nouns
- pronouns
- intransitive verbs
- subjective
- transitive verbs
- agentive
- patientive
- intransitive usage of transitive verb
- copula verbs
- with adjectives or nouns as the predicate
- modal verbs (to do: require in the dependent verb)
- si verbs
- adjectives
- predicative usage
- attributive usage
- adverbials
- adverbs
- dative
- adpositions
- negation (ke / rä'ä)
Anything else is unsupported for now, including:
- adverbials
- adpositions attached to a noun
- vocatives
- topical
- numbers
- f-words
- also taluna, krra, etc.
- interjections (kaltxì, wiya)
- san / sìk
- fte and tsnì phrases
- verb infixes
- especially and <äp> don't change transitivity yet
Many of these can only be implemented after they are supported in navi-reykunyu first.
