In this paper, a study on the automatic generation of paraphrases of Quechua sentiment predicates is presented. Using the transformational NooJ engine, I first built the rules corresponding to the elementary transformations for the Quechua language. I then describe in detail grammars performing pronominalization, reduction, and permutation of the arguments, passivization, and others. Then, I show how they can be combined, respecting certain syntactic constraints, in order to obtain complex transformations. I present the electronic dictionary of Quechua sentiment verbs I have built. Finally, I construct a particular subclass of transformations that will automatically generate paraphrases of a Quechua sentiment predicate. Reflection becomes the driving force of linguistic learning, since the linguistic hypotheses generated by the student learners (in this case, about the adjective and the verb) are validated by the machine with the application of the computer tool NooJ.
