Chapter 5. Form in Language: Grammatical Concepts. Edward Sapir. 1921. Language: An Introduction to the Study of Speech This type of form development, therefore, while of the greatest interest for the general history of language, does not directly concern us now in our effort to understand the nature of grammatical concepts and their tendency to degenerate into purely formal counters. No language wholly fails to distinguish noun and verb, though in particular cases the nature of the distinction may be an elusive one. There are languages, for instance, which have as elaborate an apparatus of negative forms for the verb as Greek has of the optative or wish-modality. www.bartleby.com /186/5.html   (9512 words)

Chapter 4. Form in Language: Grammatical Processes. Edward Sapir. 1921. Language: An Introduction to the Study of Speech In a great many languages composition is confined to what we may call the delimiting function, that is, of the two or more compounded elements one is given a more precisely qualified significance by the others, which contribute nothing to the formal build of the sentence. Sometimes both types are used in the same language, as in Yana, where “beef” is “bitter-venison” but “deer-liver” is expressed by “liver-deer.” The compounded object of a verb precedes the verbal element in Paiute, Nahuatl, and Iroquois, follows it in Yana, Tsimshian, 4 and the Algonkin languages. In some languages, such as Latin and Russian, the suffixes alone relate the word to the rest of the sentence, the prefixes being confined to the expression of such ideas as delimit the concrete significance of the radical element without influencing its bearing in the proposition. www.bartleby.com /186/4.html   (6312 words)

Encyclopedia: Free-form language   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22) In computer programming, a free-form language is a programming language in which the positioning of characters on the page in program text is not significant. These are also structured programming languages, which is sometimes thought to go along with the free-form syntax: Earlier imperative programming languages such as Fortran 77 used particular columns for line numbers, which structured languages don't use or need.

Utaker: Form in Language: Wittgenstein and Structuralism Language and linguistic expressions are thus over-looked and there is created a problem of linguistic meaning that systematically ignores the specificity of linguistic expressions. Concepts of language: I think that the dominant concept of language both within philosophy of language and linguistics is hidden in the distinctions between linguistic expression and meaning, and between linguistic expression and form. Agreeing with Wittgenstein that a form is as form linked to a medium or a materiality, he breaks with the presupposition of thinking this as a visual form. www.revue-texto.net /Saussure/Sur_Saussure/Utaker_Wittgenstein.html   (5429 words)

AI Magazine: MITA: an information-extraction approach to the analysis of free-form text in life insurance applications ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22) An in-depth natural language analysis approach, in which the input text is fully and completely analyzed, is usually highly complex, costly, and still relatively brittle. A basic analysis of the sample was performed to determine the range of syntactic forms commonly used. It was found that most sentences were cryptic, and major syntactic constituents such as subjects and verbs were freely omitted. www.findarticles.com /p/articles/mi_m2483/is_n1_v19/ai_20452452   (1241 words)

The ALGOL Programming Language 1958-60 J. Backus P. Naur ASC   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22) ALGOL (ALGOrithmic Language) is one of several high level languages designed specifically for programming scientific computations. Their original conference, which took place in Zurich, was one of the first formal attempts to address the issue of software portability.

Guardian Unlimited Books | By genre | 'For black Britons, theatre is the last free form of expression we have' For me, the novel is as comfortable as breathing - probably because I myself am a westerner with roots in the Caribbean and, of course, in Africa. I steered clear of - and largely do so to this day - the "dead white men" that make up the English literary canon, not because of wilful ignorance, but because it was already such a time-consuming task seeking out books that were mainly ignored by this literary society. For many fl British people, especially the young, this life-changing experience is proving the last free form of expression we have. books.guardian.co.uk /departments/generalfiction/story/0,6000,1114097,00.html   (1140 words)

Six Rules of Thumb for Rexx However, since greeting holds a string and "world" is a string, and since you've written one after the other, REXX treats this as implied abuttal. That is, REXX concatenates the two strings to form a *single* string which it then passes to SAY. And if REXX had been the first language you'd learned, it probably would seem weird the other way. www.uic.edu /depts/accc/software/regina/rexxrule.html   (3681 words)
