4. Conclusions
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> We showed tile usefulness of a probabilistic lexical functional grammar for a speech recognition system by demonstrating its two relatively independent constraining and predicting mechanisms : the constraining power of a context-free grammar (which allows global predictions from a global point of view) and of valencyoriented lexicon (which allows bottom-up predictions from a local point of view). In addition, we gave an account of the probability treatment within this framework.</Paragraph>
