6 CONCLUSION
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> We have developed a grammar, called Cras.s-.\], for handling distinctive phenomena in spontaneous speech. '\['he grammatical analysis of spontaneous speech is useful in combildng the fruits of dialogue undersl, anding research and those of speech pro cessing research. As describ(:d earlier, GrassoJ is used as the grammar tbr the experimental systems t~;nsemble/rli'io - 1 ancl l'hmembleffQuartetq, which are based on the Ensemble Model. It enables the processing of several kinds of spontaneons speech, such as that lacking particles.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="1"> We focused on processing ~rans('ripts because a grammar and an analysis method for spontaneons speech can be combined with speech processing systems more accurately than (:art those for written languages. null Finally, a.lthough we {b(;used only on Japanese'.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="2"> spontaneous Sl)eech , mosl, of the techniques described in this paper can also be used 1,o analyze spontaneous speech in other languages.</Paragraph>
