Abstract
A method and system parses natural language in a unique way, determining important words pertaining to a text corpus of a particular genre, such as tax preparation. Sentences extracted from instructions or forms pertaining to tax preparation, for example are parsed to determine word groups forming various parts of speech, and then are processed to exclude words on an exclusion list and word groups that don't meet predetermined criteria. From the resulting data, synonyms are replaced with a common functional operator and the resulting sentence text is analyzed against predetermined patterns to determine one or more functions to be used in a document preparation system.
