Abstract
This article reports on our experience with developing multilingual grammar resources for natural language generation (NLG). We employ a strong notion of multilinguality: (i) Grammars for different languages share their overall organization, as well as those descriptions that reflect similarities between languages and (ii) a single realization engine is used to generate with these grammars. This strong notion arises from the functionalist approach we adopt: we hypothesize that languages are likely to share communicative functions, despite possibly differing in how these functions are realized. We discuss the advantages of this view in the development of large-coverage generation grammars for a broad variety of languages.
