  abstract  = {We propose a method for learning semantic CCG parsers by projecting annotations
	via a parallel corpus. The method opens an avenue towards cheaply creating
	multilingual semantic parsers mapping open-domain text to formal meaning
	representations. A first cross-lingually learned Dutch (from English) semantic
	parser obtains f-scores ranging from 42.99% to 69.22% depending on the level of
	label informativity taken into account, compared to 58.40% to 78.88% for the
	underlying source-language system. These are promising numbers compared to
	state-of-the-art semantic parsing in open domains.},
