Restore full Walter Till grammar integration with Prolog validation
Browse filesThe coptic_prolog_rules.py file has been restored to the full working
version from coptic-dependency-parser, which properly integrates:
**Walter Till's Classical Coptic Grammar (coptic_grammar.pl):**
- Dependency grammar formulation of Till's comprehensive Coptic grammar
- The foundational grammar used by Coptologists and linguists
- Implements Universal Dependencies adapted for Coptic VSO word order
- Exports: dependency_pattern/3, validate_dependency/4, suggest_parse/3
**Coptic Lexicon (coptic_lexicon.pl):**
- 486KB comprehensive lexicon
- Loaded automatically via ensure_loaded from grammar file
- Provides lexical validation and morphological analysis
**Python-Prolog Integration Layers:**
1. **Morphological Rules (assertz-based)**:
- Article system (definite articles with gender/number)
- Pronominal system (independent and suffix pronouns)
- Verbal system (conjugation bases, tense/aspect markers)
- Auxiliary verbs (copulas with gender/number agreement)
2. **Syntactic Rules (assertz-based)**:
- Noun phrase structure (article + noun patterns)
- Tripartite nominal sentences (Subject-Copula-Predicate)
- Verbal sentence patterns (Conjugation-Subject-Verb)
- VSO word order constraints
3. **Dependency Validation**:
- Subject-verb relationship validation
- Determiner-noun agreement checking
- Modifier relationship constraints
- Invalid structure detection (e.g., content words as punctuation)
4. **Error Correction**:
- Suggests correct dependency relations for misparsed structures
- POS-specific correction rules
- Leverages Till grammar constraints for suggestions
**Changes from Previous Version:**
- Restored all assertz morphological/syntactic rules (were missing)
- Fixed module name: coptic_grammar → coptic_dependency_rules
- Added stderr suppression for optional validate_parse_tree/4 predicate
- Preserved graceful degradation when predicates unavailable
The neural-symbolic hybrid now fully leverages Walter Till's grammar
to validate and correct neural parser output. Neural parsing provides
statistical pattern recognition; Prolog provides linguistic constraints
and grammatical validation. Both layers work together as designed.
