    <Paragraph position="0"> We proposed a new lexicalized grammar formalism, called Lexicalized Tree Automata-based Grammar.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="1"> In this formalism, the trees anchored to a word are described by a tree automaton associated with it.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="2"> We showed a chart parsing algo,ithm that does not depend on the concrete content of the automata. We have imt)lemented a bi-directional translation module between Japanese and English liar conversational texts using this formalism. A preliminary evaluation of English to Japanese translation quality revealed a promising result.</Paragraph>
