Indeed OWL translation does not work in this case; but the command line
gives the explanation :

  % ape -text  "A customer gives a card to a clerk." -solo owlfss

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<messages>
  <message
      importance="error"
      type="owl"
      sentence="1"
      token="3"
      value="give"
      repair="*Ditransitive verbs not supported.*"/>
</messages>


In this case, you can avoid the ditransitive verb like this :

oem-laptop:
/media/bd003f3b-ff18-4655-91dc-e014ba1af42e/home/jmv/src/deductions/samples/pricing/TEST/
% ape -text  "A customer gives a card and a clerk receives the card." -solo
paraphrase
There is a customer X1.
There is a clerk X2.
The clerk X2 receives a card X3.
The customer X1 gives the card X3.

You can edit the default lexicon in lexicon/clex_lexicon.pl , and redo
 make_exe.sh .
