(UUM ‣ ENG) Contrastive Grammar Evaluation
Using the ten sentences with all stems translated from the lexical transfer assignment, identify at least five differences between the two languages, trying to cover a range of phenomena (e.g., don't make everything about nouns).
Example 1 (Definiteness Marker)
In Sorani Kurdish, definiteness is marked by a suffix at the end of a noun instead of a separate determiner.
- (uum) پیاوەکە → (eng) the man
- (uum) پیاو<n><def><sg> → (eng) the<det><def><sp> man<n><sg>
- (ckb) پیاوێک → (eng) a man
- (ckb) پیاو<n><ind><sg> → (eng) a<det><ind><sg> man<n><sg>
- (ckb) سەگەکان → (eng) the dogs
- (ckb) سەگ<n><def><pl> → (eng) the<det><def><sp> dog<n><pl>
- (ckb) سەگێک → (eng) a dog
- (ckb) سەگ<n><ind><sg> → (eng) a<det><ind><sp> dog<n><sg>

These can be anything where the analyses of equivalent phrases look different when the roots are ignored: i.e., differences in tags used (will appear as # in full pipeline output), differences in basic word order, etc. It can also be where a word is added (e.g., adding a definite article in English where one doesn't occur in another language) or where a tag determines a new word (e.g., a negative morpheme on a verb being realised as "not" in English).
Document these differences on the wiki.
You'll want on the order of two or three examples of each grammatical difference.
Make a section on the Contrastive Grammar page for "xyz-abc tests"
If you're doing two-way translation (i.e., you've joined forces with another group and each half of the group is working on a separate direction), then also add a section called "abc-xyz tests". In this case, each section will have equivalent tests, but in opposite directions.
Use the TransferMorphTest and TransferTest templates. For each example, use both templates. The use of these templates is demonstrated above and on the Transfer rules page. You'll scrape the content of these templates into a file later for testing, so make sure to use them correctly!
