Metarules are used in Generalized Phrase Structure Grammar to capture structural generalizations in a similar way transformational rules did in earley transformational grammar. Unlike transformational grammars they don't map structural description onto (new) structural descriptions, but generate new lexical ID rules on the basis of given ones.
