Working Paper
This paper discusses the problem of getting a computer to speak, generating natural language that is appropriate to the situation and is what it wants to say. It describes, at a general level, a program which will embody a theory of how the various types of available information are used in the linguistic process as well as the possible packaging for some of that information and the experimental situation in which the program will be developed.
