Summary/Abstract: This paper studies the statistical implicational universals in the 30 languages sample from the classical paper by Joseph Greenberg (1966). Some problems in the universals proposed by Greenberg are shown, as well as 43 previously undiscovered universals of this type. The whole text of the article was generated by the computer program UNIVAUTO (UNIVersals Authoring TOol) and only the formatting according to the style-sheet of the journal was manually added. A brief description of this program, as well as another article generated by it, were previously published by this journal (Contrastive Linguistics 1999, issue 4).
