can I employ DCGs to design language transducers, besides language
recognizers?

[ Moderator's note:

Yes, you can use DCGs to both parse and generate sentances.
With the example from the manual you can do e.g.

[eclipse 3]: phrase(sentence, S).

S = [eat]     More? (;) 

S = [sing]     More? (;) 

S = [eat, the, man]     More? (;) 
...


[eclipse 4]: length(S, 5), phrase(sentence, S).

S = [the, man, eats, the, man]     More? (;) 

S = [the, man, eats, the, apple]     More? (;) 
...
