This may be a strange question, but having read in the latest issue of BYTE about Machine Translation, I thought, why not express the source language in yacc to resolve all ambiguities like "the can can be filled" where "can" is noun or verb? I realise the enormity of such a scheme, but I would very much like to know if anybody has produced such a front end for an MT device. Thank you -- Hans Granqvist Just one guy's opinion Volvo Data Corporation, Gothenburg, Sweden To every complex problem there exists an easy solution that's not correct.
