On the theoretical side, we know that it is mildly context-sensitive (Vijay-Shanker and Weir, 1994) and that it can elegantly analyze a wide range of linguistic phenomena (Steedman, 2000) . On the practical side, we have corpora with CCG derivations for each sentence (Hockenmaier and Steedman, 2007) , a wide-coverage parser trained on that corpus (Clark and Curran, 2007) and a system for converting CCG derivations into semantic representations (Bos et al., 2004) .", |

These differences are important because they affect whether the mild context-sensitivity proof of Vijay-Shanker and Weir (1994) applies. We will provide a generalized framework for CCG within which the full variation of CCG seen in the literature can be defined. Then, we prove that for a wide range of CCGs there is a context-free grammar (CFG) that has exactly the same derivations. Included in this class of strongly context-free CCGs are a grammar including all the derivations in CCGbank and the grammar used in the Clark and Curran parser.", |

| "text": "A categorial grammar is a grammatical system consisting of a finite set of words, a set of categories, a finite set of sentential categories, a finite lexicon mapping words to categories and a rule system dictating how the categories can be combined. The set of categories are constructed from a finite set of atoms A (e.g. A = {S, N P, N, P P }) and a finite set of binary connectives B (e.g. B = {/, \\}) to build an infinite set of categories C(A, B) (e.g. C(A, B) = {S, S\\N P, (S\\N P )/ N P, . . .}). For a category C, its size |C| is the number of atom occurrences it contains. When not specified, connectives are left associative. According to the literature, combinatory categorial grammar has been defined to have a variety of rule systems. These rule systems vary from a small rule set, motivated theoretically (Vijay-Shanker and Weir, 1994) , to a larger rule set, motivated linguistically, (Steedman, 2000) to a very large rule set, motivated by practical coverage (Hockenmaier and Steedman, 2007; Clark and Curran, 2007) .

Figure 2 shows a categorization of the rules used in CCGbank according to the schema classes defined in the preceding section where a rule is placed into the least general class to which it belongs. In addition to having no generalized composition other than the reducing variant, it should also be noted that in all generalized composition rules, X = Y implying that the reducing class of generalized composition is a very natural schema class for CCGbank. If we assume that type-raising is restricted to those instances occurring in CCGbank 4 , then a CCG consisting of schema classes (1-3), (6-7) and (10-11) can generate all the derivations in CCGbank. By proposition 3, such a CCG is strongly context-free. One could also observe that since CCGbank is finite, its grammar is not only a context-free grammar but can produce only a finite number of derivations. However, our statement is much stronger because this CCG can generate all of the derivations in CCGbank given only the lexicon, the finite set of unrestricted rules and the finite number of type-raising rules. The Clark and Curran CCG Parser (Clark and Curran, 2007) is a CCG parser which uses CCGbank as a training corpus. Despite the fact that there is a strongly context-free CCG which generates all of the derivations in CCGbank, it is still possible that the grammar learned by the Clark and Curran parser is not a context-free grammar. However, in addition to rule schemata (1-6) and (10-11) they also include restriction class (A) by restricting rules to only those found in the training data 5 .
