摘要：编写计算机程序以编写满足先前需求的文本是一项具有挑战性的研究任务。作为这一研究的一部分，韩礼德在系统语言学的框架下创立了大型英语程序语法奈杰尔。除了规定英语的功能和结构外，奈杰尔还提出了一个新的语义层，规定了每种语法特征应该在什么情况下使用。该报告包括三篇关于Nigel的论文：介绍性概述，演示其在生成中的使用的脚本，以及Nigel如何与系统框架相关联的阐述。尽管发展奈杰尔的努力对于计算机科学研究和语言学研究都是重要的，但报告的前景是以其语言学意义为导向的。
Abstract : Programming a computer to write text which meets a prior need is a challenging research task. As part of such research, Nigel, a large programmed grammar of English, has been created in the framework of systemic linguistics begun by Halliday. In addition to specifying function and structures of English, Nigel has a novel semantic stratum which specifies the situations in which each grammatical feature should be used. The report consists of three papers on Nigel: an introductory overview, the script of a demonstration of its use in generation, and an exposition of how Nigel relates to the systemic framework. Although the effort to develop Nigel is significant both as computer science research and as linguistic inquiry the outlook of the report is oriented to its linguistic significance.
