  abstract  = {Microsyntactic linguistic units, such as syntactic idioms and non-standard
	syntactic constructions, are poorly represented in linguistic resources, mostly
	because the former are elements occupying an intermediate position between the
	lexicon and the grammar  
	and the latter are too specific to be routinely tackled by general grammars.
	Consequently, many such units produce substantial gaps in systems intended to
	solve sophisticated computational linguistics tasks, such as parsing, deep
	semantic analysis, question answering, machine translation, or text generation.
	They also present obstacles for applying advanced techniques to these tasks,
	such as machine learning. The paper discusses an approach aimed at bridging
	such gaps, focusing on the development of monolingual and multilingual corpora
	where microsyntactic units are to be tagged.},
