5 Summary
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> We have (very briefly) introduced the sentence generator MOOSE and then inspected the role of lexical semantics therein. MOOSE produces a range of different paraphrases for the same underlying SitSpec, and one instrument to that end is the generation of several verb configurations. We proposed a set of alternation/extension rules that derive such configurations from the basic configuration--which is the only one stored in the lexicon. Alternations are derived by rewriting the partial SemSpec, and in the case of extensions, adding a new subgraph to the denotation, and possibly adding nodes to the covering-list. We have shown that the entire alternation space for a verb like &amp;quot;to drain can be generated in this manner.</Paragraph>
