51. The computer-implemented method of claim 41 wherein one rule of the set of rules comprises aligning a pair of nodes, one from each dependency structure, comprising pronouns if respective parents are aligned with each other and neither of the nodes have unaligned siblings.
41. A computer-implemented method of associating dependency structures from two different languages stored on a tangible computer readable medium, wherein the dependency structures comprise nodes organized in a hierarchical parent/child structure, the computer-implemented method comprising: aligning nodes of the dependency structures with correspondences on the tangible medium with a computer as a function of a set of rules comprising at least two different rules where aligned nodes are determined based on the parent/child structure, and wherein aligning does not require beginning with either a top or bottom node of the hierarchical parent/child structure of the dependency structures, and wherein an order of aligning nodes is based on linguistic relevance, beginning with aligning nodes having more linguistic relevance than aligning nodes having less linguistic relevance; and providing an output from the computer indicative of the alignment of the dependency structures.
