ABSTRACT
Preverbal message generation (pvm-generation) corresponds to Levelt's microplanning. It would be more accurate to speak of microselection, because there is no micro-linearization within the conceptualizer; this is done by the formulator. In inC, the selection of utterances is done by the selection process, and pvm-generation selects the means to express the utterance. This chapter shows how referential nets can be used to establish coreferential relations between entities of subsequent incremental preverbal messages. It presents a proposal of how the current version of inC can be extended to accomplish this. It mainly affects the pvm-generation process. inC requires three extensions to generate a verbalization: construction must keep track of the temporal relations between the ongoing events; pvm-generation must verbalize the temporal relations; and pvm-generation must express the coreferences.
