Abstract

This paper describes the most salient linguistic aspects of vocative constructions in Portuguese, with special reference to its European variety. Next, the paper presents the strategy followed for implementing this linguistic knowledge in a computational grammar of Portuguese, developed for the natural language processing chain STRING and using the XIP rule-based parser. Very precise and detailed linguistic descriptions can be implemented in this way.
