Consider the following sentence pair. I declare resumed the session of the European Parliament adjourned on Friday 17 December 1999
Ich erkläre die am Freitag, dem 17. Dezember unterbrochene Sitzungsperiode des Europäischen Parlaments für wiederaufgenommen This sentence can be reduced to the following templates: I declare resumed the session of the European Parliament adjourned on ___ Ich erkläre die am ___ unterbrochene Sitzungsperiode des Europäischen Parlaments für wiederaufgenommen Given a set of candidate tokens for such template could the current implementation of Giza++ figure out which template pairs align or do you think the code would need serious modifications? I hope this made my question clearer.
