goddess: Dear King, how long has it been since you have last set foot in my Temple?
king: It has been many a month, I have been so swamped with keeping my people from dying with the beastmen attacking and all.
goddess: It has been far longer than you realize. The last I saw you was many moons ago beseeching me for aid in your crusade against the people to the North.
king: If we did not attack they would have wiped us out a mere month later.
goddess: And the time before that was begging for the animals to return to the forest so that your hunters could partake of their flesh. When, King, will you come before me with something to give?
king: This helps not me but my people, I will even give up being king if you help my nation.
goddess: You come to take and take with empty promises in return! Your understanding of what is "helping" only goes so far!
king: I will leave and never return, I will deal with this myself even if I need to give my life.
Summarize the dialogue | king hasn't visited the temple for a long time. He was busy with his people and beastmen attacks. Goddess doesn't like his attitude. |

#Person1#: What's the life expectancy in your country?
#Person2#: I'm not sure, but probably about 75 years. How about in your country?
#Person1#: About 70, I think. This newspaper article talks about the problems of an aging population. It's a problem that will soon affect most of the world.
#Person2#: I heard that the government might need to increase the retirement age, because otherwise there will not be enough workers to support the young and the elderly.

#Person1#: How important are friends to you, Bill?
#Person2#: That's kind of a strange question for this setting. Don't you think so?
#Person1#: Well, the teacher hasn't come in yet, class hasn't begun and I was just wondering about it. So what do you think about friends?
#Person2#: I've never regarded them as particularly important. Perhaps that's because I come from a big family, two brothers and three sisters, and lots of cousins. That's what's really important to me. What about you?
#Person1#: My situation, you know, is different. So I have different ideas. To me, friendship is being most important thing in life. It's more important even than love.

But a good friend is a friend for life. | Bill thinks friends are not so important while #Person1# thinks friendship is the most important thing in life. |

Professor C: Good OK so let s get started Nancy said she s coming and that means she will be My suggestion is that Robert and Johno sort of give us a report on last week s adventures to start So everybody knows there were these guys f from Heidelber actually from DFKI part of the German SmartKom project who were here for the week and I think got a lot done
Grad E: I think so too The we got to the point where we can now speak into the SmartKom system and it will go all the way through and then say something like `` Roman numeral one am Smarticus `` It actually says `` Roemisch einz am Smarticus `` which means it s just using a German sythesis module for English sentences
Professor C: It does not know `` I ``
Grad D: `` I am Sm I am Smarticus `` is what it s saying
Grad E: The sythesis is just a question of hopefully it s just a question of exchanging a couple of files once we have them And it s not going to be a problem because we decided to stick to the so called concept to speech approach So I m I m I m going backwards now so `` synthesis `` is where you sort of make this make these sounds and `` concept to speech `` is feeding into this synthesis module giving it what needs to be said and the whole syntactic structure so it can pronounce things better presumably Then just with text to speech And Johno learned how to write XML tags and did write the tree adjoining grammar for some some sentences No right ?
Grad D: So Bu i The way the the dialogue manager works is it dumps out what it wants to know or what it wants to tell the person to a er in XML and there s a conversion system for different to go from XML to something else And th so the knowledge base for the system that generates the syntasti syntactic structures for the ge generation is in a LISP like the knowledge base is in a LISP like form And then the thing that actually builds these syntactic structures is something based on Prolog So you have a basically a goal and it you know says `` OK well I m going to try to do the Greet the person goal so it just starts it binds some variables and it just decides to you know do some subscold Basically it just means `` build the tree `` | The translation of SmartKom to english is in its final stages. The variety of linguistic conventions seem to develop around an ego/allo-centric and a proximal/distal paradigm. From an engineering perspective, the belief-net for the AVE task should be completed within a few weeks. Since the whole system is going to be re-designed, there are major decisions to be taken regarding the parser and the ontology, as well as what can be re-used from past EML projects. In parallel, another team is working on formalisation and notation. Finally, more ideas are expected to come from students and their research. |

Sandra: What led you to this conclusion? ;)
Jane: I went to the cinema and they were showing the last trailer of that new Lars von Trier film
Brian: The House That Jack Built?
