== The Epic Journey == | |||
We will now follow the journey of a string through Ubiquity's parser. | |||
Suppose that the user enters the following into the parser: | |||
trans hello world to ja | |||
=== Finding the Verb === | |||
First, the parser finds the verb in the sentence. This is currently done by just taking the part of the string that occurs before the first space character: in other words, <tt>trans</tt> is our verb, and <tt>hello world to ja</tt> is the rest of our sentence. | |||
