We rely on extensive studies of frozen phrases pursued at L.A.D.L) that show that idioms are pervasive in natural language and obey, generally speaking, the same morphological and syntactical patterns as 'free' structures. By idiom we mean a structure in which some items are lexically frozen and have a semantics that is not compositional. We thus consider idioms of different syntactic categories : NP, S, adverbials, compound prepositions.., in both English and French. In lexicalized TAGs, the same grammar is used for idioms as for 'free' sentences. We assign them regular syntactic structures while representing them semantically as one non-compositional entry. Syntactic transformations and insertion of modifiers may thus apply to them as to any 'free' structures. Unlike previous approaches, their variability becomes the general case and their being totally frozen the exception. Idioms are generally represented by extended elementary trees with 'heads' made out of several items (that need not be contiguous) with one of the items serving as an index. When an idiomatic tree is selected by this index, lexical items are attached to some nodes in the tree. Idiomatic trees are selected by a single head node however the head value imposes lexical values on other nodes in the tree. This operation of attaching the head item of an idiom and its lexical parts is called lexical attachment. The \u2022 resulting tree has the lexical items corresponding to the pieces of the idiom already attached to it. *This work is partiMly supported (for the second author) by ARO grant DAA29-84-9-007, DARPA grant N0014-85-K0018, NSF grants MCS-82-191169 and DCR-84-10413.

| "text": "We generalize the parsing strategy defined for lexicalized TAG to the case of 'heads' made out of several items. We propose to parse idioms in two steps which are merged in the two steps parsing strategy that is defined for 'free' sentences. The first step performed during the lexical pass selects trees corresponding to the literal and idiomatic interpretation. However it is not always the case that the idiomatic trees are selected as possible candidates. We require that all basic pieces building the minimal idiomatic expression must be present in the input string (with possibly some order constraints). This condition is a necessary condition for the idiomatic reading but of course it is not sufficient. The second step performs the syntax analysis as in the usual case. During the second step, idiomatic reading might be rejected. Idioms are thus parsed as any 'free' sentences. Except during the selection process, idioms do not require any special parsing mechanism. We are also able to account for cases of ambiguity between idiomatic and literal interpretations.", | |

| "text": "Tree Adjoining Grammars (TAGs) were introduced by Joshi et al. 1975 and as a formalism for linguistic description. Their linguistic relevance was shown by Kroch and Abeill@ 1988 . A lexicalized version of the formalism was presented in Schabes, Abeill~ and Joshi 1988 that makes them attractive for writing computational grammars. They were proved to be parsable in polynomial time (worst case) by Vijay Shanker and Joshi 1985 and an Earley-type parser was presented by Schabes and Joshi 1988 . The basic component of a TAG is a finite set of elementary trees that have two types: initial trees or auxiliary trees (See Figure 1 ). Both are minimal (but complete) linguistic structures and have at least one terminal at their frontier (that is their 'head'). Auxiliary trees are also constrained to have exactly one leaf node labeled with a nonterminal of the same category as their root node. Adjunction is a more powerful operation: it inserts an auxiliary tree at one of the corresponding node of an elementary tree (See Figure 3) .3", | |

A novel parsing strategy follows (Schabes, Abeill~, :loshi 1988) . In a first step, the parser scans the input string and selects the different tree structures associated with the lexical items of the string by looking up the lexicon. In a second step, these structures are combined together to produce a sentence. Thus the parser uses only a subset of the entire (lexicalized) grammar. ", | |

We rely on L.A.D.L.'s work for French that studied 8000 frozen sentences, 20, 000 frozen nouns and 6000 frozen adverbs. For English, we made use of Freckelton's thesis (1984) that listed more than 3000 sentential idioms. They show that, for a given structure, idiomatic phrases are usually more numerous in the language than 'free' ones. As is well known, idioms are made of the same lexicon and consist of the same sequences of categories as 'free' structures. An interesting exception is the case of 'words' existing only as part of an idiomatic phrase, such as escampette in prendre la poudre d'escampette (to leave furtively) or umbrage in to take umbrage at NP.", | |

They behave semantically as one predicate, and for example the whole VP casser sa pipe selects the subject of the sentence and all possible modifiers. We therefore consider an idiom as one entity in the lexicon. It would not make sense to have its parts listed in the lexicon as regular categories and to have special rules to limit their distribution to this unique context. If they are already listed in the lexicon, these existing entries are considered as mere homonyms. Furthermore, usually idioms are ambiguous between literal and idiomatic readings.", | |

Freckelton 1984's listings of idiomatic sentences exhibit passivization for about 50% of the idioms comprised of a verb (different from be and have) and a frozen direct argument. Looking at a representative sample of 2000 idiomatic sentences with frozen objects (from Gross's listings at LADL) yields similar results for passivization and relativization of the frozen argument for French.

An idiomas NPo kicked the bucket is indexed by a 'head' (kicked) which specifies the other pieces of the idiom. Although the idiom is indexed by one item, the pieces are considered as its multicomponent heads.5We have, among others, the following entries in the lexicon: 6 kicked , V : Tnl (transitive verb) (a) kicked , V : Tdnl[D1 = the, N1 = bucket] (idiom) (b)", | |
