متن کاملA Corpus-based Study of Latinate Words in Contemporary English
The English language has borrowed extensively from Latin. Despite their widely acknowledged importance, however, Latinate words are under-studied especially quantitatively according to their use across different linguistic settings. In this paper, we report a corpus-based survey of Latinate words and their use in contemporary English. The objective is to chart the use and distribution of Latina...
متن کاملUsing Synthetic Compounds for Word Sense Discrimination
In many morphologically rich languages, conceptually independent morphemes are glued together to form a new word (a compound) with a meaning that is often at least in part predictable from the meanings of the contributing morphemes. Assuming that most compounds express a subconcept of exactly one sense of its nominal head, we use compounds as a higher-quality alternative to simply using general...
متن کاملSimple Models for Word Formation in English Slang
We propose generative models for three types of extra-grammatical word formation phenomena abounding in English slang: Blends, Clippings, and Reduplicatives. Adopting a datadriven approach coupled with linguistic knowledge, we propose simple models with state of the art performance on human annotated gold standard datasets. Overall, our models reveal insights into the generative processes of wo...
متن کاملA Design Principle for an Autonomous Post-translational Pattern Formation.
Previous autonomous pattern-formation models often assumed complex molecular and cellular networks. This theoretical study, however, shows that a system composed of one substrate with multisite phosphorylation and a pair of kinase and phosphatase can generate autonomous spatial information, including complex stripe patterns. All (de-)phosphorylation reactions are described with a generic Michae...
