The authors present a novel, sound and complete natural deduction-style proof system for the first-order fragment of Discourse Representation Theory (DRT). This proof system differs from certain other proof systems for DRT in that it conforms to various inference patterns followed by human interpreters of natural language texts. The system also comes with a score keeping device that helps to identify rule applications in a derivation.
