Grammar and Context in Functional Discourse Grammar
This article presents a proposal for the organization of the Contextual Component in Functional Discourse Grammar. A guiding principle in this proposal is that, given the fact that Functional Discourse Grammar is a theory of grammar, the Contextual Component should provide the information that is necessary for a proper functioning of the grammar rather than aim at an exhaustive specification of...
متن کاملPhonetics in Functional Discourse Grammar
The theory of Functional Discourse Grammar assumes that the structure of linguistic items is to a large extent determined by their use, but this idea has not yet been fleshed out in the realm of phonology and phonetics. The present paper aims to address this void, and argues that FDG should be extended with a fifth level of representation, namely a Phonetic Level. With this addition, the model ...
متن کاملThe computational complexity of sentence derivation in functional unification grammar
Functional unification (FU) grammar is a general linguistic formalism based on the merging of feature-sets. An informal outline is given of how the definition of derivation within FU grammar can be used to represent the satisfiability of an arbitrary logical formula in conjunctive normal form. This suggests that the generation of a structure from an arbitrary FU g~ammar is NP-hard, which is an ...
متن کاملModularity and Artificial Grammar Learning
People have an impressive capacity for storing information about particular events. This "episodic" memory allows us to recall the context of specific experiences, such as what we did on our last holiday, and is now fairly well understood both psychologically (Tulving, 1983) and at the neural level (McClelland, McNaughton, & O'Reilly, 1995). We also have an ability, however, to acquire knowledg...
متن کاملThe Implementation of Grammatical Functions in Functional Discourse Grammar
• ABSTRACT: In standard FG (DIK, 1997) grammatical functions are assigned directly to the underlying representation in a more or less across the board fashion, only taking into consideration the language dependent semantic function hierarchy. This approach bypasses a number of constraints on subject assignment that may be gathered from typological data, and observed from the actual behaviour of...
