I’m not sure how much my suggestions answer your original question, but in the pursuit of proper grammatical structure when trying to rewrite speech, compromise [0] might be of use to you. I’ve only played around with it for a few hours at most, but from my limited experience it is a very effective (if verbose and/or a little bloated in it’s API) tool for language analysis. With some tomfoolery I’m confident you could combine it with the GP’s recommendation of alexjs to replace strings slightly-less-naively.
