The problem is that a compositional semantics cannot easily build the logical forms that the theory requires. We present a new notation for a sentential theory, and a unification grammar that builds logical forms in our notation. The grammar is implemented using the standard implementation of definite clause grammars in Prolog.</Paragraph> </Section> class="xml-element"></Paper>
