Scannerful parsing
Parsing is divided into two parts; a tokeniser that deals with the lexical syntax and a parser that deals with the sentence syntax.
Benefits
Faster than scannerless parsing, because the lexical syntax is specified with a regular grammar which can be parsed very efficiently.
Drawbacks
Cannot deal with arbitrary composition of languages.
