  2. Word order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_order

    In linguistics, word order (also known as linear order) is the order of the syntactic constituents of a language. Word order typology studies it from a cross-linguistic perspective, and examines how languages employ different orders. Correlations between orders found in different syntactic sub-domains are also of interest. The primary word ...

  3. Linear grammar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_grammar

    If L is a linear language and M is a regular language, then the intersection is again a linear language; in other words, the linear languages are closed under intersection with regular sets. Linear languages are closed under homomorphism and inverse homomorphism. [3] As a corollary, linear languages form a full trio. Full trios in general are ...

  4. Syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syntax

    In linguistics, syntax (/ ˈ s ɪ n t æ k s / SIN-taks) [1] [2] is the study of how words and morphemes combine to form larger units such as phrases and sentences.Central concerns of syntax include word order, grammatical relations, hierarchical sentence structure (constituency), [3] agreement, the nature of crosslinguistic variation, and the relationship between form and meaning ().

  5. Linear order (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

    Linear order (or total order) is the order of two comparable elements in mathematics. Linear order may refer to: Linear order (linguistics), the order of words or ...

  6. Linear unit grammar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_Unit_Grammar

    In Linear Unit Grammar (2006), the authors describe their "study of language in use and how people manage it, handle it, cope with it and interpret it". [3] It is a "descriptive apparatus and method which aims at integrating all or most of the superficially different varieties of English."

  7. Lexicographic order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexicographic_order

    The lexicographical order of two totally ordered sets is thus a linear extension of their product order. One can define similarly the lexicographic order on the Cartesian product of an infinite family of ordered sets, if the family is indexed by the natural numbers, or more generally by a well-ordered set. This generalized lexicographical order ...

  8. Total order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_order

    In mathematics, a total order or linear order is a partial order in which any two elements are comparable. That is, a total order is a binary relation ≤ {\displaystyle \leq } on some set X {\displaystyle X} , which satisfies the following for all a , b {\displaystyle a,b} and c {\displaystyle c} in X {\displaystyle X} :

  9. Reading path - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reading_path

    According to Kress, a professor of English Education at the University of London, a reading path is the way that the text, or text plus other features, can determine or order the way that we read it. In a linear, written text, the reader makes sense of the text according to the arrangement of the words, both grammatically and syntactically. In ...
