that’s the way I had done it in the first place, only in one line 2 : '1 : (… '' (u A)~ '' … )' What I forgot was to keep in mind what parts of speech I’m dealing with so I forgot to parenthesize the noun to the right; in a simple test case I said i.3 to the right and the modifier grabbed the i. resulting in an error So changing i.3 into (i.3) did the trick (and similarly for real examples)
Just taking code from anyone without understanding results in copy&waste errors. There is no such thing like copy&paste. It’s always waste. So I still don’t do the 5!: thing Raul proposed for I don’t understand it yet – but I’ll try and learn it. (And while I’m at it, I’ll try getting familiar with ~’s usage for evaluation “evoke”.) so the original problem has been solved and was merely a bug in the human parser :) Am 27.02.20 um 12:48 schrieb 'Pascal Jasmin' via Programming:

That said, I got rid of my nested 1 :/2 : construct (I didn’t mention that yet) and tried replacing m and n by x and y but to no avail.

Please tell me where to find more information that might aid in understanding how this works: I have an adverb A and a verb V but sometimes x and y for the derived verb for A are known prior to the verb, so I want to write a modifier something like this: m (u A)~ m V n I get a domain error which afaik is due to both m and u being bound to the left noun. So how would one go about this and where to find further information on constructions like this?
