When having tip-of-the-tongue (TOT) experiences, phonologically related words have both facilitated and impeded word retrieval. This experiment examined whether phonologically related words’ syntactic class (part of speech) is responsible for these differential effects. Sixty college students saw general knowledge questions whose answers were designated target words and responded “know”, “don’t...

This paper describes a systematic investigation of the extent to which the part of speech of words can be identified from their prefixes and suffixes. The results indicate that it is possible to determine, with 95 per cent accuracy, the inclusive part of speech of an affixed word from a consideration of its prefixes, suffixes, and length. By "inclusive" parts of speech we mean a string that wil...

like sentences, combination of words is the main part of syntax in persian language as well as in russian language and plays an important role in sentence structures of these languages. combination of words in russian language is divided into three categories: verbal combinations, nominal and adverbial combinations. the writers of this article have studied combination of verbs in russian langua...

This paper presents POST STSS, a method of determining short-text semantic similarity in which part-of-speech tags are used as indicators of the deeper syntactic information usually extracted by more advanced tools like parsers and semantic role labelers. Our model employs a part-of-speech weighting scheme and is based on a statistical bag-of-words approach. It does not require either hand-craf...

Recognizing inference in text is the task of finding the textual entailment relation between the given hypothesis and text fragments. Developing a high-performance text paraphrasing system usually requires rich external knowledge such as syntactic parsing, thesaurus which is limited in Chinese since the Chinese word segmentation problem should be resolve first. In this paper, we go different li...
