1 Introduction Figure 1: Resource grammar modules. One of the features of GF is separation between the language description (grammars) and the processing engine. Grammars are written using the GF language and stored in text files. Therefore, grammars can be considered as programs written in the GF grammar language, which can be compiled and run by GF system. Just as with ordinary programming languages the efficiency of programming labor can be significantly increased by reusing previously written code. For that purpose standard libraries are usually used. To use the library a programmer only needs to know the type signatures of the library functions. Implementation details are usually hidden from the user. The GF resource grammar library [2] is aimed to serve as a standard library for the GF grammar language. Since GF is a multlingual system the library structure has an additional dimension for different languages. Each language has its own layer and all layers have more or less similar internal structure. Some parts of the library are language-independent and shared among the languages. The implementation of Russian resource grammar proves that GF grammar formalism allows us to use the language-independent abstract API for describing sometimes rather peculiar grammatical variations in different languages. A resource grammar has 13 language-specific modules (not including lexicon), see Fig. 1 that contain implementations for about 125 language-independent APIrules (not including paradigms). A standard lexicon included for a language has 450 words. The first section of this chapter is an overview of syntactic structures borrowed from the resource library documentation written by Aarne Ranta. Resource module contains the description of the basic parameters and operations used in other modules. Categories module is an overview of the grammar library types. In the rest of the chapter the modules are listed alphabetically. The concluding sections contain descriptions of some Russian morphological paradigms and automatically generated test examples intended for proof-reading and also reflecting the coverage of the GF Russian resource library. 2 Overview of syntactic structures 2.1 Texts. phrases, and utterances The outermost linguistic structure is Text. Texts are composed from Phrases (Phr) followed by punctuation marks - either of ”.”, ”?” or ”!” (with their proper variants in Spanish and Arabic). Here is an example of a Text string. John walks. Why? He doesn’t want to sleep! 4
