    <Paragraph position="0"> We have described the implementation of a large coverage parser for Swedish, following the cascaded finite-state approach. Our main guidance towards the grammar development was the observation of how and which function words behave as delimiters between different phrases, as well as which other part-of-speech tags are not allowed to be adjacent within a constituent. Cass-SWE operates on part-of-speech annotated texts using coarse-grained semantic information, and produces output that reflects this information as well as grammatical functions in the output. A corpus, annotated syntactically, is a rich source of information which we intend to use for a number of applications, e.g. information extraction; an intermediate step in the extraction of lexical semantic information; making valency lexicons more comprehensive by extracting sub-categorization information, and syntactic relations.</Paragraph>
