public class AgreementRule
extends GermanRule

Simple agreement checker for German noun phrases. Checks agreement in:

• DET/PRO NOUN: e.g. "mein Auto", "der Mann", "die Frau" (correct), "die Haus" (incorrect)
• DET/PRO ADJ NOUN: e.g. "der riesige Tisch" (correct), "die riesigen Tisch" (incorrect)

Note that this rule only checks agreement inside the noun phrase, not whether e.g. the correct case is used. For example, "Es ist das Haus dem Mann" is not detected as incorrect.
