A principle-based computational model of natural language translation consists of two components: (1) a module which makes use of a set of principles and parameters to transform the source language into an annotated surface form that can be easily converted into a "base" syntactic structure; and (2) a module which makes use of the same set of principles, but a different set of parameter values, to transform the "base" syntactic structure int...
