Multiword expressions in multilingual applications within the Grammatical Framework

• The main focus of Grammatical Framework (GF) is in multilingual applications where the same type of content is produced and analyzed in several languages at once. This is achieved by joining the grammars for all languages with a shared interlingual representation. In designing the interlingua, multiword expressions are an important factor that must be considered. Here, I adopt the broader definition where everything that translates non-compositionally accross languages is considered an expression. In this chapter I present multiword expressions from a cross-lingual perspective in relation to an interlingual grammar.
