  2. Error analysis (linguistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_analysis_(linguistics)

    Developmental errors: this kind of errors is somehow part of the overgeneralizations, (this later is subtitled into Natural and developmental learning stage errors), D.E are results of normal pattern of development, such as (come = comed) and (break = breaked), D.E indicates that the learner has started developing their linguistic knowledge and ...

  3. Error (linguistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_(linguistics)

    In linguistics, it is considered important to distinguish errors from mistakes. A distinction is always made between errors and mistakes where the former is defined as resulting from a learner's lack of proper grammatical knowledge, whilst the latter as a failure to use a known system correctly. [9] Brown terms these mistakes as performance errors.

  4. Grammaticality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammaticality

    In linguistics, grammaticality is determined by the conformity to language usage as derived by the grammar of a particular speech variety. The notion of grammaticality rose alongside the theory of generative grammar, the goal of which is to formulate rules that define well-formed, grammatical sentences. These rules of grammaticality also ...

  5. Affirmation and negation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affirmation_and_negation

    The affirmative, in an English example such as "the police chief here is a woman", declares a simple fact, in this case, it is a fact regarding the police chief and asserts that she is a woman. [5] In contrast, the negative, in an English example such as "the police chief here is not a man", is stated as an assumption for people to believe. [5]

    The on-line textbook: Information Theory, Inference, and Learning Algorithms, by David J.C. MacKay, contains chapters on elementary error-correcting codes; on the theoretical limits of error-correction; and on the latest state-of-the-art error-correcting codes, including low-density parity-check codes, turbo codes, and fountain codes.

  7. Model-theoretic grammar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model-theoretic_grammar

    The approach applies the mathematical techniques of model theory to the task of syntactic description: a grammar is a theory in the logician's sense (a consistent set of statements) and the well-formed structures are the models that satisfy the theory.

  8. Attraction (grammar) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attraction_(grammar)

    Efforts to make English the official language is gaining strength throughout the U.S. [3] The head of the subject noun phrase, "efforts", is plural, but the verb appears in a singular form because the local noun "language" in the interceding phrase is singular, and therefore attracts the production of the singular feature in "is". While Bock ...

  9. Stochastic grammar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic_grammar

    A stochastic grammar (statistical grammar) is a grammar framework with a probabilistic notion of grammaticality: Stochastic context-free grammar; Statistical parsing; Data-oriented parsing; Hidden Markov model (or stochastic regular grammar [1]) Estimation theory; The grammar is realized as a language model.
