Instance Method Details

#expand(frequency_constraints = [], define_role_names = false) ⇒ Object

The frequency_constraints array here, if supplied, may provide for each role either:

  • a PresenceConstraint to be verbalised against the relevant role, or

  • a String, used as a definite or indefinite article on the relevant role, or

  • an array containing two strings (an article and a super-type name)

The order in the array is the same as the reading’s role-sequence. REVISIT: This should probably be changed to be the fact role sequence.

define_role_names here is false (use defined names), true (define names) or nil (neither)
