Gender Conflict Resolution

This document briefly interoduces the Noun Class system of the language, and captures/explains both the internal and external requirements of agreement at the sentential level, while focusing on the vast agreement morphology. The focus of this document is the resolution of conlficted agreement requirements when in coordinated structures, and this analysis adopts a set theoretic approach to accounting for the large number of class dependancies. Look for the data corpus, soon to appear. A more in depth explanation and justification of Noun Classes can be found in soon-to-appear document entitled 'Noun Classes.'
