ESD Test Suite Examples

Linguistic Characterization

Motivating Examples

• Clear examples in cases of constructions difficult to differentiate in some cases, e.g. instrumental relatives v. purposives
• Include negative examples: strings that seem similar a priori but in fact do not represent the phenomenon. Such examples should help clarify the boundary of the phenomenon in question.

ERS Fingerprints

Interactions

• Noteworthy interactions with other semantic phenomena (such as a generator-input creator might need to know about); interphenomenal well-formedness constraints

Reflections

• Notes on composition or other further thoughts

Notes on Generation

• Place to record observations about wellformedness requirements from the generator's POV should we happen across any. (Optional section!)
