Word meaning, sentence meaning, and syntactic meaning
The lexicon has long been assumed to be the source of all conceptual content expressed by sentences. Syntactic structures have correspondingly been seen only as providing instructions for the assembly of the concepts expressed by words. Under this view, sentences have meaning, but the syntactic structures which sentences instantiate do not. This paper challenges this view: it uses the phenomeno...
متن کاملNaming, rehearsal, and interstimulus interval effects in memory processing.
Recognition memory was tested for lists of 6 briefly (0.08 s) presented pictures at different interstimulus intervals (ISI) of 0.08, 1, and 4 s. Experiment 1 showed a 16% performance increase (ISI effect) for increasing ISI for travel slide but not kaleidoscope pictures. Experiment 2 showed that learning names for the kaleidoscope pictures then resulted in a substantial (20%) ISI effect, not at...
متن کاملthe relationship between topic familiarity and guessing lexical meaning and retention among iranian efl learners
the skill of reading in english as a foreign language is an important and challenging one which is affected both by linguistic and extra linguistic factors. since vocabularies are part and parcel of every reading comprehension text, knowing enough vocabulary always facilitates this process. however, guessing strategy as one of the most important strategies has consistently ignored by language l...
15 صفحه اولPragmatics and Word Meaning
In this paper, we explore the interaction between lexical semantics and pragmatics. We argue that linguistic processing is informationally encapsulated and utilises relatively simple ‘taxonomic’ lexical semantic knowledge. On this basis, defeasible lexical generalisations deliver defeasible parts of logical form. In contrast, pragmatic inference is openended and involves arbitrary real-world kn...
متن کاملInference and Word Meaning
Last week we saw that it is possible to construct an underspecified semantic representation of sentence meaning compositionally in (R)MRS. However, although much of this representation is motivated by work on formal semantics (e.g. generalized quantifiers), (R)MRS itself is not a logic with proof and model theory. Rather it describes sets of trees of well-formed formulas in a neo-Davidsonian ve...
