OK... I'm wondering which is more scary. Grammar terminology
or XML markup.

Specifically:
Entering a 'wrong' sentence. Hit a key and it skips to end of line?
Odd, not used to it.
'show analysis' page.
SCARY!
I need some sort of explanation, in plain language, of these terms.
Otherwise I'll just walk away and laugh.
ChunkB-NP-singular
E-NP-singular
B-VP
B-PP
B-NP-singular
E-NP-singular
B-PP
B-NP-singular
I-NP-singular
E-NP-singular
E | B | I ??
N = noun
V = verb
NP = proper noun
PP = ??past participle (not heard since school days)
How to address this 'help' page?
1. Who is interested in the analysis? A user? A developer only?
What do you want the user to check? That the analysis has
been carried out correctly? XXXX is a verb, analysis shows it as a noun?
that sort of thing? If so please guide the user to that purpose.
