Have you tried using ChatGPT or similar? I tend to use LLMs only for things like this where the output is verifiable. If the problem has been encountered before many times it's quite reliable.

β¨New paperβ¨
Linguistic evaluations of LLMs often implicitly assume that language is generated by symbolic rules.
In a new position paper, @adelegoldberg.bsky.social, @kmahowald.bsky.social and I argue that languages are not Lego sets, and evaluations should reflect this!
