This book presents a detailed formal machinery for the conversion
of the Semantic Analyses (SAs) of sentences into surface structures
of English, French, German, Dutch, and to some extent Turkish. The
SAs are propositional structures consisting of a predicate and one,
two or three argument terms, some of which can themselves be
propositional structures. The surface structures are specified up
to, but not including, the morphology. The book is thus an
implementation of the programme formulated first by Albert
Sechehaye (1870-1946) and then, independently, by James McCawley
(1938-1999) in the school of Generative Semantics. It is the first,
and so far the only formally precise and empirically motivated
machinery in existence converting meaning representations into
sentences of natural languages.
