A Revised Template Description for Time (v3)

4 Example Translations with the new Model


We now provide several example translations from English into the appropriate Tipsterese expression. We first show how to manipulate the new fill types within the slot fill, and then show how to translate specific temporal connectives to Tipsterese predicates.

a. Slot Fills

1. "early January, 1993" = [ea0193]

2. "late winter, 1991" = [ltwi91]

3. "late 1992" = [lt92]

4. "mid-summer 1992" = [mdsu92]

5. "the end of the first quarter of 1993" = [eo1q93]

b. English to Tipsterese

1. "in early January, 1993" = DURING [ea0193]

2. "until late winter, 1991" = BEFORE [ltwi91]

3. "starting late 1992" = AFTER [lt92]

4. "by mid-summer 1992" = BEFORE [mdsu92]

5. "at the end of the first quarter of 1993" = ON [eo1q93]
