STANDARD COMMON FEATURES (1.0) "These features can be used by all the grammars. If a language has a given feature, it must use one of these values. New values can be added after approval by the feature committee. New features can be added as they become more universal." "This feature declaration should be called in the grammars as: FEATURES (STANDARD COMMON) (STANDARD YOUR-LANGUAGE). To modify these features and their values use the edit operators provided in xle. In your feature declaration you can:" "0. Add a feature not declared here: CHECK: -> << [ _NCHECK _VCHECK ]. 1. Use just a subset of the values: &CASE: -> $ { nom acc }. 2. Add in a new value for a feature here; these will be discussed at the next meeting: +CASE: -> $ { finnish12 finnish13 finnish 14 }. 3. Completely replace a feature with new values; these will be discussed at the next meeting: !CASE: -> $ { sg pl }. 4. Delete a feature that is not used in your grammar (e.g., remove GEND in a language with no grammatical gender): !GEND: -> $ {}."
