GramR is a programming language. GramR is also a product, the work of John Chandioux’s NLP software factory in Québec.

GramR—pronounce it à la française as ‘gram-air’ to get the full savor—started life as a programming language which John Chandioux developed in the framework of Grenoble-style, second generation MT research under Bernard Vauquois. As a Specialized Language for Linguistic Programming, GramR defined the syntax of English for eventual machine implementation. Chandioux took it with him to Montréal, Québec, where he began development of the famed TAUM-METEO English-French automatic weather bulletin translation system in 1976. For Chandioux, the technology breakthrough came via prescient Prolog inventor Alain Colmerauer: He persuaded me that the future lay in PC platforms, so we refined GramR into a linguistic programming language that was compact and efficient for implementation in the microcomputer environ-ment.
