We believe that for any formalism which has its roots in linguistics, it is a natural question to ask “how expressive is it?” Therefore, in this paper, we begin to address the question of the expressivity of CG. Aside from the obvious theoretical interest, we envision also practical benefits. Understanding what CG can and cannot express makes it possible to transform other formalisms to corresponding or approximate CGs, thus making way for new ways of grammar writing, and better reuse of existing language resources.
