...information:
In future we intend to experiment with syntactic analyzers, such as constituent chunkers, to aid in scoring potential alignments.

...(``eng-trans-of-spanish-words'').
Words belonging to the list of ``common'' words are not looked up. This is done because we don't want spurious correspondences between common words to cause us to expand the set of possible cross-linguistic matches (see the GET-LONGEST-POSSIBLE-TRANS routine below). Matching on common words is, however, performed when evaluating the candidate alignments (see the SCORE-MATCH routine below).
