Incremental parsing has been researched in the intention that the parse result of the original string is reused in the parsing of a new string. This paper proposes an improved method of the previous incremental LL(1) parser with nonterminal lookahead symbols. The previous work is time-inefficient because it repeatedly performs unnecessary steps when an error occurs. This paper gives a solution for the problem.

The problem whether a given grammar G generates an LL language or not is investigated in respect of LL transformable grammars. The previous work involves a nondeterministic intricated parser construction for the characterization of LL transformable grammars. The method hence does not give the intuitive understanding of the essence of LL languages. This paper suggests a characterization of LL transformable grammars based on grammatical derivations instead of the complicated parser construction. The new characterization contributes to intuitive understanding of the essence of LL languages.
