  abstract  = {Multiword expressions (MWEs) are pervasive in natural languages and often have
	both idiomatic and compositional readings, which leads to high syntactic
	ambiguity. We show that for some MWE types idiomatic readings are usually the
	correct ones. We propose a heuristic for an A* parser for Tree Adjoining
	Grammars which benefits from this knowledge by promoting MWE-oriented analyses.
	This strategy leads to a substantial reduction in the parsing search space in
	case of true positive MWE occurrences, while avoiding parsing failures in case
	of false positives.},
