Sentence generation using SRILM

[desaikey]

Hi,

I am trying to generate a set of random sentences using a specified
n-gram language model. The command and related flags I m using are:

ngram -lm x.lm -gen Xno 

When I use "small vocabulary (AN4 CMU database) whole-words trigram LM"
the tool is able to generate sentences. But with other LMs (Bi/Uni
-gram) the size of the generated sentences is excessively large or tool
takes too much of time. While with spelling based LMs the tool is not
able to generate sentences or again too large a size of sentc.(even for
tri-gram). 

Please share any ideas/experience you have about such a problem.

Thanks in advance for your help.
