    Hello

    I have used other members of the opennlp packages, and today downloaded ccg.

    I would like to break sentences into conjunctions, rather than simply splitting the sentences around the CC tag. The rule for a conjunction is that it must contain a verb and a subject.

    Does a method like this exist within the package and, if so, what is it called and what is it a member of?

    Thanks

      Hi,
         The ccg package is final and esentially un-supported at this point. 

        If your talking about parses from the opennlp.tools.parser package:  There is no built in mechanism for splitting VP or S conjuntions into seperate parses.  The opennlp.tool.parser.Parse data structure should make it pretty easy to implement an approach to do this like the one you suggest, since it gives you easy access to parent and children nodes.  Hope this helps...Tom

        Actually, the CCG package lives on, and in much improved form at http://openccg.sourceforge.net/.

        Cheers,
        Jason
