    Hi,

    Is there a way to reference a particular entity inside a logical form?

    entry: s<1>[E]\n<2>[X nom]:
           E:action(* <Actor> X:sem-obj);

    I am wondering how I could, in another rule, use this value of "Actor". E:action:<actor> doesn't seem to be working.

    Thanks.

      You can access it with the X variable in the syntactic category. So, another category that is something like n\n/(s\np[X]) can make reference to the Actor for that logical form.
