Abstract :
We present an approach to parsing relative clauses in Arabic in the tradition of the Paninian grammar framework which leads to deriving a common logical form for equivalent sentences. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of resumptive pronouns in the retrieval of syntactico-semantic relationships. The analysis arises from the development of a lexicalised dependency grammar for Arabic that has application for machine translation.
