We chose to investigate an alternative research direction by aiming to develop a `` paraphrastic grammar '' that is , a grammar which captures the paraphrastic relations between linguistic structuress . Based on a computational grammar that associates natural language expressions with both a syntactic and a semantic representation , a paraphrastic gram ` As we shall briefly discuss in section 4 , the grammar is developed with the help of a meta-grammar ( Candito , 1999 ) thus ensuring an additional level of abstraction . The metagrammar is an abstract specification of the linguistic properties ( phrase structure , valency , realisation of grammatical functions etc. ) encoded in the grammar basic units .
