Hi Tino, would it be possible to do this with CG or would this need to implemented in some new program? Anyhow, I suppose this involves a lot of work writing clever rules.
My rational for target language smoothing is: a) my bad experience of the performance of the old pair sv-da with lots of blatant errors made by the tagger. b) target language smoothing is very easy to implement. When doing lemmatisation the tagger isn't used, as far as I can see. This leaves all inherent ambiguities in the Swedish dictionary to be handled somehow. So, I just proposed a quick fix that might improve the result significantly in this special case (and maybe other cases with a lot of ambiguity that is not properly handled). Other means my be more adequate and/or more effective.
